Game slowing down after some time.

[xkenq 0]

Hello. In the beginning: sorry for my English.

So... DayZ normally runs on my pc at like 25 fps, which is fine to me.

But after some time, it starts to lag, the more i play, the more it lags, when i press escape, it takes like 10 seconds to load up the menu, building models load extremely slowly, fps gets down all the time, when i try to close the game after like 2 hrs of playing, it sometimes takes like ten minutes to shut it down, and sometimes it completely freezes my pc.

I have to restart my pc then, for everything to work again fine, for another time. Closing and opening the game doesn't help.

My specs:

GTS 450

AMD 5200 64 x2 2.6

2GB RAM

WIN 7 64 BIT

I know this isn't a good pc, but it should run on 25 fps, and not slow down after time.

Thank You for any help.

Im no expert but your computer could be suffering from low memory, you can press ctrl+alt+del then choose the activity monitor to see how much memory is free and how much you are using. Also having other programs running at the same time can cause similar problems. I also recommend searching this on google as it may not only be related to dayz ^^

Have you checked your CPU and GPU temps before and after your system starts to slow down? You might be overheating. That system will be really struggling to run the game.

I... i don't really know, i cant check how it is with the memory, because when i minimize the game when it-already-started-lagging, it just freezes my pc.

AND, i know it's not a good system, but it shouldn't slow down like that, you know? I mean, first it runs fine (at least for me) then it slows down..

1 more thing: the game starts lagging faster if im traveling a lot, especially using fast vehicles. It looks like it would... i don't know, after loading some textures, models, RAM just doesn't clear, and then it loads up everything from the hdd, could it be that? ;/
