TheMilkywayDude 0 Posted January 12, 2013 Hi, I have had my eye on DayZ and PC gaming for a long time now. I have used can you run it to see if I can and my graphics card is my problem. I have an Intel G33/G31 Express Chipset Family which I know is laughable. I need a cheap graphics card capable of running DayZ and my budget is up to £50. I know this is not a great amount of money but I would really like to start off with something cheap and slowly build up, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barrett_killz 229 Posted January 12, 2013 Your CPU is weak, and I don't really think that you'll get a good graphics card for 50 pounds... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wouldn't be playable on these specs.OP - What are your other specs? If you've only got a dual-core CPU and a couple of gigs of RAM then spending a few quid on a graphics card won't do a whole lot, if your other specs are alright then you'll probably be able to just about get by on a £50 card.Please post them in the 'Can I Run It?' thread here...http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64576-can-i-run-it-ask-here/page__st__2520And I'll let you know.Thanks!
