Answer
Probably not. You see, all of your specs are great, except for your video card. This part confuses me, though. You say you have an Intel HD Graphics card while sites like CNET say it has a Nvidia card. Please, use a program like CPU-Z:

Or SIW:

If you have that Nvidia card, go right ahead and play Day-Z, but if you really have what you say, read the rest of this.

This is usually the nail in the coffin to most people with average computers; ones that weren't bought/customized with gaming, 3D programs or video editors in mind. There are two ways VRAM (RAM for video cards) can be classified as: shared or dedicated. Shared memory/RAM (as its name implies) uses the main RAM for calculations. While more cost-effective, it's nowhere near as powerful as dedicated RAM. Dedicated memory (again, as its name suggests) is RAM in the video card, for only it to utilize. There are also different kinds of dedicated RAM: DDR3, GDDR3 and GDDR5. Obviously, GDDR5 is the best, but the most expensive. GDDR3 is acceptable, but plain DDR3 is not the best choice for gaming (even with a game like Arma II, which isn't THAT intensive.) At the same time, RAM is not everything. Clock speed, while not as important as the processor's speed, is something to look out for. The really big thing to look out for besides shared RAM, however, is bus width. Basically, bus width is the highway the calculations travel on. The higher bit size your bus width has, the more traffic can get through. 64-bit bus width is not what you want. Even with, say, 2GB GDDR5 RAM, having 64-bit bus width will stop you from playing games like Battlefield 3. 128-bit and 256-bit is what you want.

tl;dr: No, but please, use one of those programs to check if you have a Nvidia GPU.

Answer
Go to 'Start' -> 'Control Panel' -> 'Programs and Features' and remove those programs you don't use by consulting your friend or nearby geek. Here are some must-have software to optimize your computer and are also recommended by CNET.com -
