You'll be severely held back by your processor. I say you'll run on high-very high w/about 30-40FPS.

I dont think that processor will hold him back at all, its a 4 core skylake. Gaming really doesnt utilize more than that right now, eventually yes multi threaded cores and 6-8 core cpus are probably better but with that mother board he can upgrade in the future.

It's running at a really low speed though.

While GHZ is important it really isnt everything. With the skylake the cores are very powerful and wont bottleneck the card at all. What the lower GHZ will affect is things like rendering,and video editing. All prices are euro but ur from US blackjack?

Well. He's good for other games but for Arma it might be a bit lacking as Fat Clemenza mentioned.

You can run at medium and get good frames

An i7 Processor you can run it basically perfectly.

Right now I'd just wait and buy a 1070 or 1080 for the GPU.  Way more bang for your buck, while using less power at the same time.

If you can, try upgrading the RAM. While 8 GB is good now for most games, ArmA can actually take quite a bit of memory anmd I've heard people say that when they upgraded their RAM, it gave them a boost in FPS.
