Can I run it? Dell XPS 13 newest model

[flugflach 0]

I have the latest dell xps 13 and was wondering if I could run this game on the lowest settings, I have 4gb of RAM and a decent graphics card(everything is stock).

I can run planet side 2 with probably 15-30 fps and only encounter unbearable lag when I am around large amounts of other players, I can render HUGE portions of the map with no lag so I am hopeful that I will be able to run the game on everything low.

But because I know zilch about computers I was hoping someone could help me out.

judging by ur performance in planet side 2, i think ull do just okay with dayz

expect around 15-25 fps in cities, and maybe 40fps in plains

edit: i just checked the dell xps specs and im a bit dissapointed. that thing doesnt even have a gpu, just an intel3000hd

im surprised u can even get 30fps in planet side 2.

as for dayz, its hard to predict taking in mind what u say,

but initially i would have said that an intel inbuilt gfx chip wouldnt even get 10 fps in dayz

Intel HD is crap. Don't bet on perfoming very well.

You should invest in a desktop with a proper video card like a GTX 560 or higher [Or AMD equiv.] and NOT a Dell, HP or any of those preconfigured overpriced junk systems.

It varies heavily, I was not lying, earlier today i sniping alongside about 15 other people in planetside and was getting 20fps, Im talking the lowest settings thoough. Does dayz have an option shoot the graphics down? From videos i have seen the rendering of arma 2 isnt as high of quality of planetside, are you taking the lowest settings into account with 10fps?

idk if day z needs a super pc to run it but it's always good to have one anyways my laptop is from dell and runs most games better than some desktops out there(still the better choice is to build a desktop but i dont have the money's or the space to put one)

Your XPS 13 should do fine for the DAYZ mod. I think you're safe to buy.

If you decide to get more serious about PC gaming, $500 will get you started on a decent gaming desktop.

i played planet side 2 and i had to cut the settings down quite a bit to play it smoothly and without lag (normal up to 80fps and 30-40fps in the huge fights) and i have quite a powerful machine

i get 40-50 fps in cities in dayz, and 80fps in plains, so basically fps in planetside is very close to dayz

as for optimization, dayz is rather poor when it comes to that

there are ways to improve performance, from 20fps u may possibly go to 25fps, but its not that much

if u could afford an ultrabook, ull be able to pay urself a nice pc, and trust me u need a pc for dayz. the laptops simply dont cut the edge

and rendering of arma 2 may look shabby in vids, but only untill u play it urself

the game is very nice graphically when u get to play in person
