I just started playing DayZ Standalone again after a few months, I got a new graphics card so I was hoping to see how good the game would look, though I've been having (relatively) horrible performance compared to what I'd expect, and have tried a lot of things. On my current settings I can sometimes manage to scrape up 60fps when facing open areas or some forests etc, when looking into a city, large or small (Basically anywhere with more than 10 separate buildings I assume) my fps drops to below 30, sometimes hitting 20. I can understand my FPS dropping when looking at a city, but this much? And with my specs? I was assuming I would be getting 100 fps in non-city areas and never hitting below 60 in general, based on FPS I've received in other games. Most my settings are either on medium or low/very low, with the exception of Antialiasing and textures, which are both on high/very high. I've tried setting them as low but it didn't seem to impact my FPS very much. I've used optimization guides and I tried unparking my CPU cores, both of which didn't make much of an effect. I'm pretty stuck here with options to make the game more playable on my system. My specs are: CPU: i7 3820 CPU Cooler: Kraken X61 liquid cooler GPU: GTX 980 Ti Mobo: Gigabyte X79 UD3 PSU: Corsair GS800 RAM: 16GB @1600MHz SSD: Samsung 840 EVO My CPU is generally at 3.6GHz, I tried overclocking it to around 4.2 in an attempt for more frames, though it didn't seem to do anything. Thanks for the help in advanced.
