Really low FPS

[embrace 2]

Hi all,

I have recently started playing Dayz and before I downloaded it, I checked with the website 'can I run it' and it said I could run it fine.

Whichever server I go on (with more than 4 people) I get really low FPS. When I say low, I mean between 5-9 FPS.

Can anyone help? I have tried changing the video settings to low, but it hasn't ha a major impact.

I have an AMD Phenom 8400 triple core processor (2.10 GHz)

Sorry I don't know much else, the computer was given to me by my sisters boyfriend (he used it for gaming)

Thanks

Elise

I think it is your processor, it is running at only 2.10 GHz and you need at least 3.0 to be running the game smoothly.

That and it's a tri-core, you really need a decent quad-core for ARMA 2 and DayZ.

Sorry I be a plank... But how do I do that??

[Ivanuvo (DayZ) 117]

Click the Windows icon in the bottom left, in the search type Dxdiag and it should open automatically.

If anything you should up your graphic settings to get the load off of the cpu.

Hi,

How do I do that? And what should I change it to?

Thanks

Try setting everything to 'normal', anti-aliasing, PPoE, AToC and post-process effects disabled. You do this in your graphics settings in ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead.

I also find that disabling Vsync helps with less lag.

[Mos1ey 6301]

Vsync's a weird one. For me, using vsync boosts my frame rate a little sometimes, and other times makes no difference, but other people say disabling it gives them higher FPS. OP, I'd try playing with it enabled and disabled for a little while each and seeing if you notice a difference one way or the other.
