triage 117 Posted July 28, 2013 When I first got my computer I could run dayz at high about 40-45 FPS and very high at 35. Now I can barely get 30 on normal SPECS: GTX 560m8gb rami7-2670qm CPU @ 2.20GHZ (8 Cores)1000 gigs of space Does anyone know why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meat pie 632 Posted July 28, 2013 30 fps is da greatest, if you are getting that even in city's then you are in great shape! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Se7eN- 874 Posted July 28, 2013 Well the graphics card is only decent and your Processor is probably being destroyed by arma. tbh your lucky your getting 30 frames. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OfficerRaymond 2064 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) When I first got my computer I could run dayz at high about 40-45 FPS and very high at 35.

Are vsync, AA, and PPAA disabled? When is the last time you did a defrag? Have you changed anything at all since you have seen the FPs drop? Edit: 30 is playable, your GPU beats mine, however... I'm not sure about that i7.... I can't find any bench info on it so I couldn't tell you, but that probably has something to do with it.

triage 117 Posted July 28, 2013 I do a defrag of my system everday. Both of my hard drives. My hardware does get hot a lot on arma. My cpu can get to 144F and my GPU can get to about 140F Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
triage 117 Posted July 28, 2013 Only way I can think to cool my hardaware down is to add another fan inside Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John69 64 Posted July 28, 2013 Laptops have a bad habbit of downclocking itself when heat become a issue, its summetime and temps are abit higher now.Cleaning (dusting) youre comp/fans with some compressed air or youre vacuum cleaner can solve the heat problem.You can also check "Control Panel--->Power Options--->High Performance" is checked,and always play with the powercord plugged in. Defrag youre hardrive will help, theres NO game who are so hardrive dependent as Arma,its a fact.Arma 2 and Dayz is running best on a HIGH clocked quadcore cpu and a SSD.

John69 64 Posted July 28, 2013 I you dont know,leave it until you know better. Some laptops are not easy to clean out without removing some parts (backplates/batteries..so on) BUT, if you can monitor youre temp while playing, it could give you a clue IF you have a heat problem. Download HWmonitor: http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.htmlIts a small app, it will monitor youre cpu/gpu temp, leave it running while you play.
