Monkee91 0 Posted February 22, 2013 Hi guys, first time poster here. I have a question for any gtx 670 owners out there. What type of fps do you get when playing DayZ? When i play a game like Crysis 2 etc i get 60 FPS no problem, but i cant seem to get a steady fps with this game.I average 40 FPS going as low as 20 fps in cherno.My settings are a mixture or very high and medium.My system;-I5-3470Gigabyte GTX 6701TB HD8GB 1600MHz RamThanks !

Target Practice (DayZ) 1335 Posted February 22, 2013 It's just DayZ being DayZ - due to the nature of the game being a mod on an engine that's not entirely suited or designed for it, there are serious optimization issues. I've got a similar system (i7-3770 instead of the i5), and I get similar framerates to you. There's not really much you can do about it other than just live with it until the standalone hits. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Target Practice (DayZ) 1335 Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Hehe, nah - it's the same for everyone. The general rule of thumb I always use is 'what do I get in any other current game at high to max settings?' then subtract 15-20 from that, and that's roughly what you'll get on the same settings in DayZ. :D Edited February 23, 2013 by Target Practice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irl-calibre 744 Posted February 23, 2013 i've a similar set up with a 1tb harddrvie and found running dayz off a virtual ram drive helped particularly with scoping lag - there are plenty of guides how to do it on google.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toombs (DayZ) 5 Posted February 23, 2013 Yep I get around the same #'s as everyone else here. Sometimes to make me feel better I'll go on a empty or low pop server and run around in the woods to hit 70 FPS to feel good. Most of the time recently I've been looking at a You Died screen more than anything though :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zyromkiru 1 Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Your CPU is bottleknecking you and I heard this game only uses 2 cores etc..I have a 660 and have better frames than you due to the processor being better, its a nice investment if you just get an i5-3570k as nothing more is needed and its only about $230. Then if you get the right cooling you can overclock it to become even greater and i haven't done that yet because I need a new cpu fan + thermal paste.The game is poorly optimizedI can run battlefield 3 on ultra with MSAA and all them goodies.. I noticed though that the setting in game for the trees and grass tends to take a nice hit on my system so without that turned on it's usually doing great.
