You're not going to be able to run DayZ on high with a 640.
You also are going super overkill with the ram.

My advice:

Build your own pc and save money and have better specs

Or

find a computer with 8GB of ram and with a better GPU

its just your GPU thats slacking...you wont get a chance on running dayz with a gt 640....youll need a GTX series for efficient gaming on that and based upon the way you built this id get a 750w just for safe purposes

What's your budget and currency? It looks like this is a pre-built but you said you'll be "building away" so I'm not sure.

Please know even a bit about computers before replying to a post

Drop the CPU?

Its a solid CPU, yeah okay, its not the best for gaming but it will do

And that GPU that you suggested is well outdated and even worse than the one that is supplied with the computer that the original poster had

Between 600-700 pounds. If you could help, that would be great.

Thanks everyone though
