Can This PC run DayZ SA and ARMA 3 on high or ultra

Yes that build should be able to run Arma 3 and DayZ on ultra, but DayZ SA is pretty badly optimised, you might have surprising performance. I slightly altered your build, some parts could have been better or you could have chosen a cheaper alternative so I changed a few parts.
