Slap on a GTX285 or HD5850 (at least) and I think you should be able to do 1080P/1200P. It's not the CPU that's holding you back, it's the GPU I suspect....what GPU do you have anyway?

At the BC2 forum over at Steam, I see some complaining that their good rigs - dualies with GTX275/HD4870/HD4890 rigs have problems running at high detail. This is even though their vid cards seem more than capable enough, turns out their CPUs is holding them back, not the GPU. BC2 runs better on quads than dualies (unless you OC the heck outta the dualie) since some work, including sound from what I've gathered, is offloaded to the CPU. In your case, your CPU should be able to handle these additional work easily, so I believe the GPU may be the limiting factor.

With my HTPC, my Q6600 handles it easily enough, if I were to stick a 5870 in it, I'm pretty sure I can do BC2 @1080P full bore.....well, perhaps at 2xMSAA, 4xMSAA tops.
