A better CPU to start with, ARMA likes powerful CPUs. You can get an i5 for $185 that will be MUCH better. The next thing would be your GPU.

so i better to get a new cpu would this do the job Intel Core i5-3470 3.20GHz (Ivy Bridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor

Yeah, the Pentium is fine for casual gaming, but it is underpowered for heavier games like ARMA. That one would be perfectly fine I would make sure your BIOS is version A2 or newer though, and if not, you can flash it using MSI's utility. This will make sure you have no problems using the 3470.

sweet man what fps do you think i get in the game then and also i just bought a ssd hard drive do you think it be a good idea to put my os on there and my arma 2

Not sure on the FPS, but I'm sure you'll get medium with that And yeah, definitely the OS. Putting ARMA on won't do anything to increase performance, but will make load times almost nonexistent lol
