What brand is your PSU? Not that this will affect perofrmance, but 530w sounds suspect of a low quality unit.

Your computer will not max games at 1080p. You will be looking at mostly high settings. In some online games like Arma 2 should run very well though.

When playing, is your GPU or CPU at 100% usage?

Also, your 4gb RAM will hurt you a bit compared to 8gb in large online games.
