DutchOpfor 0 Posted August 17, 2013 I love playing DayZ, and I get good FPS. It drops a lot though. Tips?Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTXProcessor: AMD Phenom II X4 940RAM: 8GBOS: 64-Bit Vista Home PremiumHard Drive Size: 500GBAny tips you have would be appreciated. I doubt it, try installing Arma 2: free and look if that runs properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ocelot07 60 Posted August 17, 2013 I love playing DayZ, and I get good FPS. It drops a lot though. Tips?Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTXProcessor: AMD Phenom II X4 940RAM: 8GBOS: 64-Bit Vista Home PremiumHard Drive Size: 500GBAny tips you have would be appreciated. I doubt it, try installing Arma 2: free and look if that runs properly. The x4 940 is still a decent CPU and should be more than enough for DayZ.I use to have x4 965 and played DayZ fine and there is not much difference between the 940 and 965. It is the GPU that is the problem. Consider maybe the 7770 or 7790? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChickenDog 0 Posted August 17, 2013 I downloaded arma2: free and it runs flawlessly. I've even played a few mp gamesI didn't think it would run very good but surprisingly it's very smooth.What I'm asking is before I buy what's needed for dayz, do you think it would run properly? I don't need ultra/high settings.... Just normal. Enough to be able to make out that a person is a person, not a blob of pixel.Laptop, windows 7 64bit1600x900Core 2 Duo T6500 2.10ghz (2 CPUs)ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4300 series, 2041 MBRAM: 4GBThanks fellas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PooPoo 13 Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Please don't post stuff like that, there are people here who really want to know if they'll be able to run DayZ or not If you go for a system like that, and don't even know whether or not it will run DayZ, then you obviously have no clue what you're doing, because that's beyond overkill Check this laptop out: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834312836 $100 over you're limit but imo it'd be worth it. Should run DayZ quite well. In addition to the 1TB hard drive, it also comes with an SSD. Boot times will be much much faster, and you should still have enough space to install ArmA 2 onto it Thanks for the suggestion. I think I might pick it up, only problem is I'm in Canada, so I can't get it from newegg.com, only from newegg.ca which doesn't have it. I found 2 similar laptops on the Lenovo website for Canada, will it do the trick? It seems to be on sale.http://shop.lenovo.com/ca/en/laptops/ideapad/y-series/y510p/ Seems to have the exact same specs as the one you posted except the video cards are slightly different? I'm not tech expert so I really don't know. Also the one on sale for 849 seems to be exactly the same as the one for 999, except no SSD and a lower resolution. Can you help me pick one out? Thanks man. Thanks a lot for your help Edited August 18, 2013 by PooPoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dulix11 731 Posted August 18, 2013 -snip- The CPU and GPU are really behind. -snip- You'll need at least 3.0GHz of CPU speed to run ArmA II OK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death_Dealer 3155 Posted August 18, 2013 It had a GT 610.That's why I was thinking the first link, you'd be the best because it has a good CPU and a decent GPU. That's not how it works I'm afraid. The 610 is an awful graphics card that will bottleneck that CPU. Not only do you need a good CPU for DayZ, but you also need a good GPU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
