I would say thats a very solid gaming rig. i5s are great for the price and the GTX560 is good too, but i would suggest if you are willing to bump the graphics card up to like GTX570/580 you will have a very decent gaming machine. (IMO)
Also if you are getting overclockable parts (the cpu and mother board) I would suggest getting the overclocking service too. But to do that you would need to bump up the power supply. But overall thats a good setup and will be able to run games at decent framerate and quality :) And yes it should be able to handle ARMA 2 |

6850 out performs the 560SE and saves a bit of money. Next reasonable step up is the GTX560Ti 1GB then the 7850 or GTX560Ti 1.2GB 448.
