Can these specs run DayZ?:

OS: Windows 8

Processor: Intel Core i7 3630QM Processor

Memory: 8GB

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 2GB GDDR5 VRAM

Sorry if this isn't specific enough, I'm new to PC gaming so I'm trying my best to fit in.

Anyway... I plan on buying the G46VW 14 inch gaming notebook and want to confirm it will be able to run DayZ, because I know nothing about these parts yet I thought I would ask on the forums.

You can find all the specs they've listed for the G46VW here: http://rog.asus.com/...ook/14-2/g46vw/

Oh look. Another i7 processor.

Prepare for a less-than-average FPS while playing ARMA 2 / DayZ.

Well, thanks guys :D! I was SUPER close to buying an Alienware m14x but my friend told me it sucks, thank god I didn't waste $1k on that!

What do you mean by this? Is the i7 not a good processor for DayZ?

Hes most likely talking about how often i7 owners don't get the word to stop multi-threading because it will help increase FPS when disabled.

I own a slow ass AMD anyways. :|

Are the improvements big? I run i7 lol. Also is this the same for other games?

It'll run fine but why did you get a laptop? portability isn't really a good enough reason to not get a 3x more powerful desktop than that for the same price...

Some people who are attending school enjoy gaming aswell?

Generally speaking, it SHOULD be.

But there are a lot of people here on the forums that have i7 processors and complain about performance issues.

Edit; Yeah, pretty much what the other guy said. Multi/Hyper-threading seems to cause a lot of problems with ARMA 2 / DayZ, and no, it's not the same for other games.

Thanks for your response, I did a bit of googling and found that some people have had increased fps by disabling hyperthreading in bios.

Will try this out.
