it will run it just fine yes

only thing i would advise is that you get 4 more gigs of ram for 8 total

You will struggle at running it but i think it can be done.

that system wont struggle at all even with only 4 GB of RAM as long as he adjusts his in game video settings accordingly

4 more GB of RAM and you can increase some of the settings

Arma 2 can only use 2GB of RAM since it's a 32bit program so increasing RAM won't do much, get a better graphics card like a GT 750 Ti that will definently help.

Saw you bought the game. How does it run? For all of us who were wondering . . .

It runs ok, I got some settings on high, some on normal and some on low for DayZ mod, in the other things like singleplayer or Takistan life I can increase all my settings to high and still get 40 frames, with the effects and stuff, I am very pleased of this PC, also, the store will send me 2gb of ram because in the store they said it has 6 gb but i got it with only 4, so, all is good

Thanks for letting us know. This supports the notion that ArmA is more GPU heavy than anything (not the best, but the GT 730 isn't bad). DayZ uses the CPU a good bit to process the zombies, etc. I've heard. I've also heard that ArmA only uses two cores in the CPU, so it makes sense that your i3 can handle it. It will be interesting to see how more RAM affects your performance.
