A build like this will run you up about 50 more euros, and that's without an OS.

It's hard to say, the CPU looks fine but I'm assuming it'll be paired with a weak GPU with memory such as 1GB probably. It's hard to tell what's a good deal when buying a pre-assembled PC like that especially when they don't like the exact specs of the PC. It is nice however that a monitor was included in there. If your budget is 500 euros, I will try to put together a build that will include a monitor but may be hard. It also may not come with a GPU at all since intel chips have integrated graphics.

No not even close. I dont even think it has a dedicated graphics card so you will be running arma off of the cpu's integrated graphics which is not nearly powerful enough to run arma properly. your best bet is to just build a gaming pc or try to find a decent prebuilt gaming pc. Check out cyber power.

The issue with prebuilt PC's is usually if they have a nice component then somewhere the build has "cheaped out". So if you had a decent CPU you might have a poor/no GPU, or if you have a decent GPU you might have a poor CPU.

For a game like DayZ it should run it but not well. Even a lot of mid-high end gaming rigs can't run DayZ well because it was poorly optimized. The PSU seems weak, and I've never heard of that ram before.

Maybe in bf4 not in day z i can guarantee that. You really want an intel cpu for dayz the arma engine runs much better on intel chips. Dayz and all arma engine games are horribly optimized pieces of garbage that only run well on certain setups and i dont think the one you picked there is one of them.

Agree, for 1400 euros you could order a wicked PC. Here's an idea for you since building doesn't appeal to you for whatever your reasoning is (not judging :)) I'm sure where you live, like me there are individuals with years of experience building computers, you could order the parts and have them assemble the rig for you. Then you have the assembly from an experienced builder and the best price on parts so you know you aren't being ripped off.

^^ this is the best suggestion & kind of what I was about to offer.
I can't work out your build suggestions,I assume you're uk from the pcworld link & then you link to a usa prebuild ,then back to a uk one ,all at massively different price ranges??
The middle pc is actually decently priced for the components
The last one is a good pc ,close to top spec,but something just as comparable in gaming can be built for around the 900 quid mark.
You need to set a budget for what you want & youll get much better advice.
Bear in mind ,there is not a rig on the planet that offers GOOD performance in dayz or arma 3 ,its a work in progress & always has been & always will be terriblt optimised.
amd setups are entirely capable of playing it at decent settings but expect lows of 25-30fps,expect the same from an intel cpu from the i3 upto the low i5 end.
the haswell 4590/4690/4790's wil limit that fps drops to high 30's but they are expensive.

its more like 560 quid mate as some of those parts arent available at the prices partpicker says!! as per usual
Which is why I dont price stuff up on there :pt1cable:

if you have a ups dropoff point near you,there are better prices at scan who offer 3.99 delivery
