I read a little quickly about your CPU, and with a AMD HD 7970 it'll run with about 70fps(1080p, high settings) in the test sequence in the test they did, so that should easily run SA and most newer titles. So theres no need for you to upgrade your CPU yet. What PSU do you have?

 

AMD example:

Both on sale today

 

The forum wouldnt let me post the picture, but here you can see the benchmarks with a FX-4100 and 7970:

awesome man thanks ill order it asap if my psu is ok for it?

 

my PSU is an "ATX switching power supply" 

model:A-500BR

 

The make is either ATX or Ace not sure as it says both on the psu, but the model number is definitely correct! :)

Forgot to say that the benchmark was for BF3.

 

Honestly I am not very good with PSU's, but I know for sure that the GTX770 has a recommended watt of 600. As everyone would recommend, buy anything that is 80+ broze(or higher) certified.

Ive never tried Antec myself, so I cant say if its good or not. However, this is what I have in my pc:

 

600w, 80+ bronze certificate and about £40 less.

System Memory 12234 MB DDR3 1600Mhz

 

Now I can run on Med settings at about 20-30 frames.. Sad, I know :(

 

I think I should upgrade to:

AMD FX-8350, X8,(8 core) 4.0GHz

AMD Radeon R9 270X 1020MHz 4GB GDDR5

 

Will it make much difference ? Does anyone of you guys have this CPU or GPU (the ones I think of buying, not the ones I already have)

Arma 2 and 3 was more of CPU dependant, so maybe I should try upgrading my processor first and if it doesn't run on high settings 50-60 fps, then I would buy a graphics card..?

I hope I dont have to spend 600 euro to play Dayz.

As for the CPU, I think you can keep the one you have. Buying a CPU with more cores wont really help you with games, but if youre streaming and maybe running a heavy rendering in the background, then yes. 

 

So, maybe use alittle more money on the GPU and go for a 280-290X?

Yea, but its different with arma games, coz I  have read so many threads/posts about it being a CPU drain. Or not?

Does Dayz SA support CrossFire ?

It has to do with bad optimization, and thats it. People need to remember that Arma and DayZ is built on a engine that doesnt support multi threading/multi core. Barley any game today does. Thats why Intel users might experience a better performance, due to their cores being stronger per core.

You should be fine, The 660 and the i5 shouldnt be the problem, might want to upgrade the RAM(not just for the game.

I can get 20-25 FPS on the mod outside of cities, which is usually where I stay.  Will the standalone give me similar, worse, or better performance?

Running game with 4gigs of ram ,geting another 4 will help with fps ?
