Did you install the Intel HD graphics drivers before you installed the nVidia drivers? It's a long shot, but I've solved issues like these on some Dell machines just by doing that.
Hope is lost for the BF series, because they follow what the marketing department and statistics say customers want in a game. There is still hope in the indie game development community, though. They usually don't look at statistics and instead ask the players what they actually want.

Well... Cracks are sometimes suspicious. I had a "free" copy of NFSU2, which actually tried to turn my system into a part of a botnet. I'd suggest testing it out on another system on a virtual machine first if you're suspicious. Then again, I've seen virus and malware scanners detect cracks and CD key generators as 'harmful' at an ever increasing rate, so you might be right about the false positives.
I installed Arma III out of curiosity on my work computer that's running Linux and has shittier hardware than my system at home. It ran surprisingly well and the game seems cool! I'm definitely in, doesn't matter what kind of campaign you guys are gonna play.
Most likely? I mean, I'm currently running
2x GTX 760 cards in SLI
1x SSD
4x HDDs
16gb Kingston HyperX 1600mhz RAM
Quad core AMD Phenom X4 Black Edition (can't be arsed to check the model...)
A ton of fans and cold cathode illumination
My PSU is a Corsair HX 620W (Modular)and I have no power issues with my current setup, so I'd imagine yours is OK.
Enjoy your upgrade!
