Did you try turning it down to 800x600?

1. If you're not asking us any meaningful question about technology, none of us care. 

2. I'm really hungry.

I store near me still sells an Athlon x3 Triple core for under $60, that paired with an SSD, 8GB of Ram, $70-150 motherboard and a 750Ti or R7 270 territory and you have a capable system of any modern game at moderately good looking settings and performance.

If I had a few hundred spare I'd actually get it and make a proper 1080p HTPC/Gaming/Lan Triple core budget build.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

Haha, thanks :) I suppose it's kind of for my benefit too though... I've been on the receiving end of many bad words and fits of rage when his laptop crashed because of another program running or the connection lags out :/

You aren't missing much. I played the game on PC for about 5 min before uninstalling. Seriously I just hated the experience of getting into a game and the gameplay wasn't for me.

And you're saying this as if it's bad hardware. For BF3 it's definitely not.
