ArmA 3 does do multi-threading to some extent now but the single-core performance of Intel CPUs should be much more effective given how CPU-limited the game is. I'd say that computer should be more than capable of running ArmA 2 just fine. As for ArmA 3, most of the hardware shouldn't have many problems but I'm not really sure how adequate the CPU is since I have little experience with AMD processors. I'd wager it'll be playable but keep in mind it's a hard game to run with even the most top-of-the-line hardware.

Another thing to keep in mind is that ArmA 3 is going to get DirectX 12 support next year, which should increase its performance, especially with regards to CPU limitations and multi-threading. Thanks to Microsloth you'll need Windows 10 to make use of that, though.
