Can I Run DayZ Retail (POST HERE)

Recommended Posts

Hello I am going to be buying a desktop PC soon, and am wondering if it could run DayZ standalone and on which settings and FPS roughly i will be expecting:

---------------------------------------------------------------

Desktop Or Laptop:Desktop

Monitor Resolution:1920x1080

CPU:Intel® Core™ i5-4670, 4× 3400 MHz

GPU:NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 660, 2048 MB

RAM:8192 MB DDR3-RAM, 1600 MHz

---------------------------------------------

Thank you :D

 

Yeah, you'll have no problems. This is pretty much spot on "recommended specs", you'll run med-high settings with decent frame rates.

 

 

Desktop or laptop? Desktop
Monitor resolution: 1920x1080
CPU: I5-4670k @ 4.1ghz
Graphics card: GTX 780
RAM:* 8gb DDR3 1600mhz
SSD? (Yes/No) No
 
The game need to be optimize, I get around 40fps everything maxed out

 

 

I'm not sure why you'd even buy a game that's clearly labelled as an early access alpha build if you're looking for an optimised final product. :S

 

 

 
It's a laptop. Lenovo IdeaPad Y510p 59388313 15.6-Inch Laptop
 
Monitor resolution: 1920x1080
CPU: Intel Core i7-4700MQ 2.4 GHz Processor (6 MB Cache)
Graphics card: Dual NVIDIA GeForce GT750M Discrete Graphics
RAM: 8 GB DDR3
SSD? No
It has a hybrid drive. 1 TB HDD + 8 GB SSD

 

 

Yeah, it'll run alright on there. Could be a little choppy in cities but you should get steady frames on at least med settings for the most part.

CPU: i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz ( Running at 4Ghz and is stable + Air cooler )

Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series

RAM: 16gig ( Kingston 8GB 2400MHz DDR3 Predator Kit x 2 )

Sound: Realtek High Definition Audio

SSD?: Yes ( Samsung SSD 840 PRO Seri SCSI Disk Device 250gig )

Amd Black Edition Phenom II x4 940be / Asus m4A79-Deluxe / Corsair HX850w / 2x2 Dual ddr Kingston 1066mhz / Powercoler Hd4870x2 / Samsung 750 gb hdd 7200rpm / Case Thermaltake Vh8000bwa Armor / Spk Logitech X-540 70 Watt 5.1 / Samsung SyncMaster T220

This is my system as you see. Im taking 45 50 fps outsite of the town. For instance from berezino to electro way. When I reach to somewhere in town, dayZ turning into a game which is unplayable. My question is how to fix this situation? Should I buy more ram, (2x2 extra ram and in total 8gb) and also SSD? These things can fix this problem? Thank you In advance.

In the game's current state it shouldn't run perfect even on a super computer, change your settings back to default and look at the rendering resolution, if it's too low, put it up and if it's too high, put it down, you should be above 80% at least to get a solid framerate.

What about ram and ssd situation? By the way i will try to change rendering resolution. But i just want to improve my system settings to get better fps instead of decrease to game options.

You will be able to run the game but performance will not be great, especially in cities. I'd expect 30 FPS on low settings most of the time, half that in cities.

 

Thanks mos1ey for the reply

lots of things work for different computers, i bought a new card to run the game as the original card i had wasn't suffice, although if i had of changed some settings on the readme file then it would have been better, for example, try change the rendering distance from 3000 to 1500 etc, but you should search this up as my graphics card that i have now (HD Radeon 7870) is more than enough to run this game. Hope you figure it out.

Yes, should be very playable on Medium graphics settings.

 

If you CPU is a 'K", overclock beyond 4.0GHz for better performance in cities.

Awesome thanks! (I'm assuming you are talking to me) Not quite sure how to overclock but ill do some research ahaha.

 

Thanks for quick reply.

I know nothing about AMD CPUs, but DayZ doesn't support Crossfire, so you are only using 1 x 4870.

 

If your AMD CPU is a fast one, buying a better single graphics card will improve things.

 

If your AMD CPU is not so good, buying a better graphics card will not help much.

Not true, game runs like butter for me even in big cities with maximum settings on GTX 780 w/ i7-4770K @ 1920x1080 60Hz...

In my experience all rv engine games (arma 1 2 3 toh dayz) do not go all that well on amd cpu's and a 940 aint a great amd cpu to boot its what a quad 3 gig cpu....

 

Sadly the best performance gain you can get is through the cpu you want to be running something clocked to atleast 4 ghz 4.5 is better ( you wont clock that cpu anywhere near that ... hell even amd's 8 core cpu(sorry forgotten the name right now) slugs along badly..

 

I persisted for a long time with amd but as i have been playing arma for over 8 years eventually had to bite the bullet and go intel cant go past a good i7 cpu..

 

PS amd is great bang for buck hell the phenom II 965 is still listed as one of the best bang for buck cpu's and there decent for almost everything else (few other programs like arma just run better on intel architecture..

I guess this performance issue is all about amd cpu's. 3.200~ ghz is my average cpu frequency while playing. But my graphic card is good enough to run this game. When I compare my cpu, graphic card and ram I think that rams are not enough to run with these parts. I mean ram is the lowest part of my system. My laptop has i7 quadcore cpu and 16gb ddr3 ram (800mhz) and its good enough to play Dayz Standalone

Would you share your settings ?

 

I have a i7 3820 clocked to 4.2GHz, and i have the GTX Titan witch have about the same power as the GTX 780, but i still have "problems" sometimes, when im in big cities i get down to mid 20 low 30 fps sometimes.

I dont know what i am doing wrong, since my specs should run this more smoothly.

My rig is ancient by Technology standards (~5 years old).... I've done everything I could to upgrade what I have. Here are the specs:

 

16GB Corsair DDR2 RAM

Socket 1366 Intel Core 2 Quad (they call it an i7) @ 3.2Ghz

2 Wd Black 500GB drives in Raid 0

1 EVGA GTX 680 SSc 4GB video card

Corsair HX1000 Power supply

Silverstone FT02 Case

 

I have everything on Max settings and I have no issues running the game (outside of the current bugs). If I were the OP; I would take a long hard look at that Graphics card. Not trying to start a fanboy war. Look at the facts. Nvidia trumps anything you can buy in the AMD/ATI cards.

Your using an intell cpu not a good one but seriously the architecture of intel for RV engine works better but your right that nvidea cards also work better for RV engine games dont believe me check out the trouble shooting section of this forum and every arma game forum and see the complaints from users using amd cpu and ati graphics cards ( they work perfectly fine for almost every other game etc but RV engine and a few other things it just gets poor performance ( the cpu being the more important of the 2 by miles though..

ASUS Maximus VI Hero

i7-4770K @ 4.1GHz

16GB DDR3 - 1600MHz (Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer C8)

Gigabyte GTX 780 OC 3GB Rev. 2

 

All video settings (Quality, Rendering, etc.) are turned up to the highest possible option.  Latest (not beta) NVidia drivers, running at 1920x1080 @ 60Hz.  Game is also installed on Samsung 840 PRO SSD, not sure if big city lag is caused by loading visuals as they come into draw distance?

 

My system is only 1 week old, was running on an Intel Q9450 @ 3.2GHz with GTX 480 previously, and I had pretty bad FPS drops in cities with low settings.

I am really interested in this game but my 4 year old pc ain't very good so I'm wondering, am I able to play and enjoy the game with my machine?
 
Here are my specs:
 
Desktop or laptop? Desktop
Monitor resolution: 1920*1080 (But I can play with 1280*720)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 2,66Ghz (OC'd to 3,2GHz)
Graphics card: Nvidia 8800GT (705/990/1700 core/memory/shader)
RAM: 4GB (ddr2)
SSD? No.

 

Alright so I bought the game eventhough my pc isn't very good and I have to say I'm very surprised. I play on 1536 X 864 resolution (80%, monitor resolution 1920 x 1080) and low settings (clouds disabled). I've played 9 hours and my average FPS has been around 40.  I haven't visited in bigger cities yet, so we'll se what happens when I find myself wondering the streets of Elektro or something else. :D

Should be ok to run, might have to mess about with the settings on the Video/Render/quality settings. Please note tho, some games/engines are funny with Notebooks integrated dedicated graphics card.

Make sure Vsync is disabled, Ambient Occlusion (Settings -> Video -> Rendering) is disabled and Objects (Settings -> Video -> Quality) are on low. Start from there. I think you'll be able to run the game fine with those settings even in your native resolution. Keep in mind though, in major cities you won't be able to pop more than 20~25 fps. Don't get dissapointed. In less performance intensive areas, in which case is everywhere except major towns, your framerate will be at playable levels. 

 

If you are not happy with the framerate using the above settings, disable Shadows and Clouds (Settings -> Video -> Quality)
