My laptop has the following specs:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200M CPU @ 2.50GHz
Video Card 1 Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600
Video Card 2 Radeon (TM) HD 8670M
Memory 8.1 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit

My laptop is an hp pavilion 17-e178ca. Do you guys think I'd be able to run the standalone DayZ? Any replies would be greatly appreciated!

DayZ SA is a CPU & GPU hog, moreso on the CPU than the GPU if you're running current-gen hardware. I don't have any stats or benchmarks to back this up, but I have friends with equivalent and in some cases better overall hardware that don't consider it reasonably playable right now. Remember, it is considered early alpha still, as they plan on better part of a year of development at a minimum still.
