FPS Question.

[sean.koen85@gmail.com 17]

Hi guys, sorry for posting another FPS issue/question, but i'm outta ideas.

In DayZ vanilla i get 40-50 FPS in nature, it drops to about 25 in cities, below 20 if the server is crowded.

However, in Breaking point, my fps doens't even get to 20, no matter where i am.

I figured it has to do with all the stuff they added in there. Same for Taviana when i enter Sabina, i can't get up to 20. All of my setting in Arma2 are on high, Memory on default, and AA off.

I've put my specs down below, can anyone tell me what my bottleneck is?

Is it GPU or CPU related?

AMD Phenom II X4 850

8 GB RAM

XFX RADEON HD6870 1GB

Win 7 64

I'm planning to upgrade the GPU to a Palit GTX760 2GB Jetstream, how much will that help?

I Have followed a lot of setting tweaks in DayZ, the Arma 2 config file, and tried RAMdisk.

Thanks in advance guys!

Badly optimised and expensive assets will cause bad performance, whatever your system.

Yeah, Breaking Point is obviously horrid in the optimization department. I can't even play it due to the massive lag spikes that last several minutes and render my character unusable.

The GPU upgrade won't really affect your overall performance, but it might help a tiny bit.

Your processor speed is fine for DayZ, everything is just horribly optimized.

It usually comes down to server quality for frame rate issues. Bad server = bad FPS.

Thank you for the quick response guys, appreciate it.

Looks like i'll just have to wait it out for the standalone.

Think i'm getting that GTX760 anyways, be prepaired for upcoming games.

Cheers men!

For anything to do with Arma or Dayz i need to put my video settings lower to be able to run the game smooth so try and lower the graphics
