Not really... http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107.html AMD had been offering significantly more pixels per £ in most of the gaming GPU categories until low supply and high demand from crypto coin miners pushed up the prices over the last month or so.
-
That is quite excellent.
-
^ This. The GPU, VRMs and VRAM in a 7770 (and any other recent graphics card) will run at 90 degrees Celsius without any ill effects.

Do you run Zone Alarm on your PC?

Underwhelming performance after video card upgrade
terminal_boy replied to AlchyMcAlcherson's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
It's your CPU. And you'll need a new motherboard too as Socket 1156 was a developmental dead-end. -
No reason why the wound/medical system from ACE can't be incorporated into the SA.

SKS rifle will be a mix of DMR and M14 aim ?
terminal_boy replied to kataro's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Accurate enough to put holes in a man at 300 metres. -

Micro Stutter and Low VRAM usage
terminal_boy replied to leafamouse's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
ArmA likes to stream textures from your HDD, so yours could have a small cache which could be hurting you. As you have 16GB of RAM, you could set up a RAMDisk and run the game from that. Unfortunately, the ArmA game engine doesn't like laptops, i7 CPUs and mobile GPUs. -
Micro Stutter and Low VRAM usage

Is that some sort of OEM laptop? -
I think your local Craigslist can fix this for you.

St. Trinian's schoolgirl outfit. -
What about The Holy Hand Grenade Of Antioch? It's worked on mutant rabbits before....
-
30 round PMAGs please, no mag couplers. I'd run a Ready Mag system, but mag couplers are simply a very effective way to get crap into the 2nd mag.

Does Rocket need to add flame throwers or silver bullets to rid the SA of these undead rabbits?

Need a Fix For fuzzy grass and trees White dots / artifacting on grass, foliage, and trees
terminal_boy replied to suffix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
See that every time I switch on any of the ATOC options. The lowest AA setting does improve clarity at distance on my PC - AMD R9 290. -
Thanks for the video and nice to see targets being led correctly. Extra thanks for reminding me why I don't go anyway near the cities in this game.

Running Dayz on Mac through BootCamp
terminal_boy replied to lightningcougar's topic in General Discussion
If you use Bootcamp Assistant, it will offer you the option of downloading all the hardware drivers you need to a USB stick. Install Windows first and then run the driver package from USB. Remember to install the 64 bit version of Win 7 if you want to use more than 3.5GB of RAM. -
Game will need 3 types when they add the AK-47/AKM/RPK family of weapons and the SKS. 7.62 x 54R, 7.62 x 51 NATO and 7.62 x 39 Soviet.
-
A zeroed AK-47 or SKS will put a bullet in a man-sized target at 300 metres if you aim for centre of mass unless the barrel is utterly trashed. Just as it was designed to.
-
That'll be the 7670M (mobile) GPU then. I'll give out my standard laptop response : If you don't have a high-end laptop built for gaming, running DayZ isn't going to be a fun experience.

A moment of pedantry for the cargo vest and magazines...
terminal_boy replied to Land Squid's topic in General Discussion
Let's no go overboard and make pouches (sewn-in or modular) too specific. Rifle magazine pouches should hold any 30 round rifle magazine or 30 rounds of loose or stripper-clipped rifle ammo. Pistol magazine pouches should hold any pistol mag or 15 rounds of loose or half-moon clipped pistol ammo. Canteen pouch should hold any canteen or 2 drinks cans/bottles. General purpose pouch around 5-6 slots for everything else or 1 x 100 belt of machine gun ammo. -
Clothesline makes a lot of sense. Here's some of mine: - Rope + Camo Net to hide vehicles, camps etc. - Rope + Poncho to make a basha (rain/wind shelter). - Rope + Backpack to allow you to strap larger items to the outside of the pack.

The RV engine is the worst engine ever made.
terminal_boy replied to EchelonEffect's topic in General Discussion
Whilst there is no doubt that the RV engine has limitations, it's the engine that BIS know intimately and likely to give us the best version of the SA right now and in the near to medium future. -
Find a nicely wooded vantage point at least 500m away from any road or building where I can have a good look around without being seen when I log back in later.
