Not very well.

The Pentium D is really tragic, even compared to an old Core 2 Duo.

I did have DayZ running on a friends PC which had a Core 2 Duo E6400 and 8800 GTX which ran it ok at 720p but only just.
In the end we picked up a used mobo/Q8400/4gb ram and a gtx 460 for about £100 and it plays it well now and tons of modern games at 1080p if you dont go nuts with the detail settings.
