Day-z running slow, how to improve it?

[Kasel2 0]

well, i bough arma II on a sale reently, and the first thing i did was installing day-< (i didnt try thea ctual game yet, only the demo and i liked it, i guess someday i will play arma missions). i have all graphics on low, and still i lag A LOT, it goes down to really laggy fps.

My actual pc is:

Nvidia GT220 512mb GDDR3

PhenomII x2 3.11ghz

2gb ram ddr2

windows xp on a 500gb HD

I'm wondering, if it's my pc what should i add? more ram, a better graphs card? (i could get a 1gb GDDR5).

or is it any cfg problem?

thanks for reading and for any help you bring to this matter!

Your computer is not really up to the job.

There are some Stress Tests in single player.

Try adjusting the settings but I doubt that it will change much.

In that case which part needs to be improved? ram? core? graphs card?

By the looks of it you are going to need a new computer as most of this stuff is very outdated and ARMA/DayZ is a very modern game that needs a pretty good computer to run smoothly.

i don't really midn having low garphs... i just want to have a decent fps rate avoiding the entire pc change (i'm still asving up for the motherboard, but i could add a new graphscard in the meantime or get an extra ram lended)
