Forget half-decent, it won't even be remotely playable. You've got to have at least a mid-range graphics card like the GTX 650 Ti or 7770 to be able to play DayZ "half decent."

Integrated graphics will prob not run it, I run it reasonably with a 5 yr old Geforce 8800 GTS. Arma 2 is 3 years old.

How many frames per second do you get, and on what resolution/settings? Arma II may be old, but at max or near max settings in 1080p, it's still pretty demanding. DayZ (mod) even more so because of the wasted resources.

That's another thing: OP, what's the resolution of your monitor?

No, the GT 620 isn't really designed for gaming and is much weaker than the 8800GT (the recommended card for Arma II). It's only half as powerful as Kelski's 8800GTS.
