iHaterade 0 Posted June 8, 2013 Hello, i'm new to DayZ. I bought it about a day ago, set it up, and now it lags like crazy(20-40fps on low settings). Specs:GFX: Sapphire Radeon 7850 1gb Overclocked EditionOS: Windows 7 64-bitCPU: i3-2120 Clocked at 3.30GHzResolution: 1920 x 1080Is there anything I can do to not make this as laggy? I wouldn't expect it to lag as much as it does with my GPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeaMan (DayZ) 31 Posted June 8, 2013 Not really mate,Its just DayZ isnt very optimized.Everyone has these problems.Search the forums and you will find a thread or two about getting a few extra fps with some minor tweaks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rarabka 165 Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) In arma your CPU is much more important than in most games. With a dual core you'll only get so much regardless of how good your GPU is. Edited June 8, 2013 by Rarabka233 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bensticles 75 Posted June 8, 2013 The 7850 should be fine for DayZ. My group records with 7850's just fine. It's mostly CPU bound like said above. Your CPU isn't the best. I can also confirm rolling the beta patch back helps.Also are you talking about in cherno? Cherno seems to bring even really good system's to it's knees. I run 10-15 FPS in cherno, and 30-40 anyplace else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creature 1189 Posted June 8, 2013 Pro tip...Turn most of your video settings to high. You're card can handle it and it will take a bunch of strain off your CPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colekern 1364 Posted June 8, 2013 Never put settings on low. Your CPU is pretty low end, and switching settings to low makes your CPU work too hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
