Honestly, do not expect it to play it at ultra . It is not a matter of hardware, it is a matter of how poorly the game is coded. DayZ is not hardware limited but coding limited. People with i7s and gtx780tis struggle for high (not high) settings. I play at normal settings with an i5 and gtx660ti. I get 30fps in town and 50 outside towns. Neither my GPU or CPU goes over 60% usage, so it is not my hardware limiting me. It is well known that DayZ has many Vram and memory leaks which hold it back. But hey, its an Alpha game so you cannot expect much. I still like it and it is a good game.

Cpu selection is not great and is limited.
Whilst building your first pc seems hard, its not that bad as there are many guides on youtube to show you what to do (Watch before attempting to build).
If you are really paranoid, one solution is to buy the pc there but without the graphic card and choose the cheapest power supply. But you buy the graphic card and a better power supply separately and then add them to the pc when it arrives. My friend did this because he doesn't want to build one himself even though I offered to help.

Do not expect any major changes anytime soon. The main director for the game is ditching the project at the end of the summer for someone else to hopefully pick up.

It will be like minecraft, constantly updating and never finished. Do not ever expect a polished or smooth running game out of DayZ.
