Can I run Bioshock Infinite?

I'm about to purchase a new custom built desktop online, and was thinking about prepurchasing Bioshock Infinite for it. I've compared the game's official stats with those of my new desktop, and I have more than enough RAM, a better video card, and the correct OS to run it on recommended setting, but under CPU it lists "Quad Core Processor" without specifying model or gigahertz. I searched it using Google shopping, and the highest quad core I've found is 3.6 gigahertz with 3.9 turbo. My current processor from the computer I'm buying is the 3rd Gen Intel® Core i7 I7-3770 running at 3.4 gigahertz with a stock cooler. Will I be able to run this game on my new computer?

Thanks for your help!
 
Alright, thanks. Usually the recommended settings are pretty accurate but the only things about them I've seen be faulty is the CPU speed when I used to run games on my old laptop, which is why I wanted to be cautious.
 
Thanks for the reference. The automatic detection is quite nice, I'll definitely use this once my computer gets here.
