Very laggy but why? How to fix?

Recommended Posts

Hey there, I am playing Day Z origins! I played before without any laggs but then i stopped playing. So I started again to play and now I lagg like hell and do not understand why?

 

Processor: AMD Turion II Dual-core Mobile M520

Graphic cards: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 Series

RAM: 4 Gb

OS: Windows 7 x64

 

I have Shadowdetail, antialiasing and postprocess effects disabled. Video memory is set on default!

try setting antialiasing to default setting and ensure vsync is off if its graphic-related/fps lag, kill your peers if its ping related :)

Sorry, It's not good enough for DayZ. The game needs atleast a midrange rig to run it comfortably.

But I was playing some months ago without any laggs and now it is lagging like hell?

 

Laptops tend to degrade over time...

 

Have you defragged your hard-drive lately? That would probably help a bit.

 

Also, if you can clear out the air vents that might help too.

It can depend greatly on the server that you play on, a decent spec server with good ping and low population will be a lot smoother than a busy server on crappy hardware and lots of poorly implemented scripts, this makes it really hard to compare the results you are getting now to how it used to play for you. 

 

There could be other factors too, maybe your system is just running slower than it used to, this happens with windows unless you really keep on top of unnecessary programs running in the background. i tend to just go for a fresh windows install every few months, makes a big difference.

    

But yeah your system is very underpowered for dayz, so the slightest change could easily push it over the edge.

This could be a reason! I will make a recovery and download everything again.

ya laptops dont really get worse over time if you keep them in cheack and  clean the vents,send them to get a check up now and then but if you have not done that try  more,also find out what you run arma 2 like if you are getting 30+ fps then it is the server if not then its your computer and you should send it into a shop to get checked up.

Clean your laptop fan vents and check the thermal paste on your computer if it's a year or older.

Heat tends to create instability and a lot of issues in laptops.

We need to notify Fraggle if there is an overheating.

Overheating?
 

 
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
 
It sounds to me like overheating is definately something you need to consider.  It's an issue many people overlook.  I would advise taking the side off of your rig and using some compressed air to blow away the cobwebs.  You'll be amazed how many issues this can solve.
 
Overheating, the bane of the video games industry.
 
Have you tried turning it off... ... ... ... and then back on again

Although it's obvious what you're talking about in this context, whenever someone uses the words "Kill your peers" in any DayZ related context, it makes me trust them... just the slightest bit less. ;D
