Is this a good system?

I'm looking to get a new computer, but I definitely don't want to go a custom-built route. So, I was wondering; is this a decent build for $1250?

How would it run DayZ standalone?

Is this a Mini - ITX build? if so you wont have the possibility of either CFire or SLI in the future due to only one GPU slot on the motherboard or adding a lot or extra ram in the future and have any other upgrades limited due to the size and space of the cabinet.

Will you be building this by yourself or willing to build it? the CX series from Corsair's PSU aren't very good and apparently have cheap ended capacitors so do the RM,CS and VS series the rest of them from Corsair are good.

If this PC is only for Dayz it would be hard to tell of course it would run it on ultra or max. I would suggest downing the CPU to a I5 4690K or even a non OC build depending on if you'll OC. With the CPU downed you could afford a better GPU. Games this generation have practically no difference in FPS between an i5 and an i7 it depends more on the video card.

DO you need an OS, Keyboard or mouse or a Monitor included in the build?

If you are buying the PC from a 3rd party also known as a prebuilt PC apparently from let's say iBUYPOWER or Cyberpower i wouldn't recommend that, they are really not so good I would suggest ordering different parts from different websites seperately and building the PC from ground up which would save you money.
