Can I Run DayZ Retail (POST HERE)

[anti-duck 0]

Overcl

 

Overclocking your CPU will help, but that should run Medium to High settings at a very playable framerate.

 

I don't think Xfire or SLI are supported yet, so expect one GPU to be near idle and the other at 100%.

 

Yeah, I didn't expect Crossfire to be supported at this very early stage. Thanks for your answer  :D

Will mine?

Gtx 660

8gb mushkin ram

3.8ghz processor

1920x1080p work?

of course it will.

 

Has this thread become a pissing contest?

I mean, the steam page lists the minimums and over half of the people asking are well above that.

Plus the numerous readings on google and here about performance expectations in SA.

 

anyhoo...common sense!

[muffy_duffy 32]

Lol, mine was more of a sarcastic question. :^) after building numerous computers for games, I know which graphic cards and processors can, and cant, run games. Cheers mate.

[deebz1234 243]

Ya definitely a troll haha

 

overclock that processor to 4.25+ ghz and you will run dayz as good as any

Will my laptop be able to run Day Z?

 

Processor:                          AMD A6-4400M APU with Radeon HD Graphics

                                           2.70 GHz

 

Installed memory (RAM):    4.00 GB (3.47 GB usable)

 

System type:                      64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

No

 

maybe at 5-10 fps with ridiculously low settings

 

list the model of laptop?

[BEWARE-OF-ME 2]

Well, I'm having troubles running DayZ SA on my rig, here it is: (the CPU is pretty shit)

 

 

CPU: AMD FX-4100 4core

GPU: HIS AMD Radeon 7850 2gb GDDR5

PSU: Corsair CX600M Builder

OS: Win7 Home Premium

RAM: 8gb DDR3 1333mhz (pretty slow)

HDD: 1tb

 

Help, i don't know if it is any good :(

[Grimey Rick 3417]

It'll run DayZ, if that's what you want to know.

[BEWARE-OF-ME 2]

I have DayZ SA, though I don't seem to produce a good frame rate in places such as Elektro and Cherno.

 

What settings would you recommend for me?

 

Getting shit frames in the cities at least. ( < 20 fps! )

[Gruffallo 16]

Just use trial and error, turn some settings down see how it runs.

Merging.

 

Also check the stickies in  "new Players" area for tips on optimisation.

That's fairly normal. This game is still horribly optimized. In a city, the game currently does not make full use of your video card and processor. Below is a screenshot of the load on my CPU and GPU while inside of a building.

 

 

As you can see, I'm only using 25% of each graphics card, and not even 70% of my processor. My frames per second are decent in this picture (everything is on maximum), but they're not nearly what they will be when this game is finally optimized. Rocket has informed us that they have discovered what is causing the poor frame rates when in or around buildings, so hopefully we'll see a fix soon.

i can also see you are about to have a heart attack :/

Can I run it? Someone is running it with a PC of similar specifics?

 

Desktop or laptop? Desktop

Monitor resolution: 1440x900

CPU:Pentium Dual Core E5400 @ 2.70GHZ 

Graphics card: Nvidia GForce9500 GT

RAM:* 4Gb DDR2

SSD? (Yes/No)

[warriortyr 17]

So I rewrite my question here since nobody could help me:
 

Laptop

Monitor resolution: on 2nd screen: 1280 * 1024 (original 1200 * 800)

CPU: i7 3520M @ 2,9 Ghz

Graphics card: intel HD 4000 @ 1Gb VRAM

RAM: 8GB 

SSD? (Yes/No) No

 

Will this notebook be able to run dayZ on lowest settings @ >=30fps ?

I know the intel HD sucks, but I always thought the bottleneck for DayZ is the CPU...

 

AND: Will there be a real difference between playing DayZ on a i5 @ 2,5 GHz and this i7 @ 2,9 GHz (with same GPU)?

 

Please help me, I promise  :beans:  :beans:  :beans:   ;)

I'm sorry that nobody has taken the time to answer your previous post and to be quite honest I am not the best placed to respond.

However, I believe that some people run the game using on-board GPU solutions.

 

Don't quote me on that, I'm just bumping in the hope that someone will be able to help you.

 

CPU power is all important in DayZ,.

Thank you for your honest answer and yeah, I know that most people can't help me because they use a real computer. 

I'm not annoyed or disappointed, I also just hope to find a person who can help me... ;-D

again common sense would dictate you check the minimum requirements. then you would see you are borderline, aka non playable.

realistically you will struggle and be frustrated and disappointed.

 

i have a core 2 duo @ 2.7 ghz with a good video card and it struggles to get 20 fps with every tweak possible

so your laptop will shit itself.

 

also your draw distance and object details will be set to ultra low and you may or may not enjoy your stay

I know the minimum requeriments. But, for example, I can play perfectly Skyrim, Left 4 Dead 2, Fallout: NW, and some other games that my PC is suposed to can't play. That's why I ask if someone has a PC similar and is playing.

[MetalSpoon 5]

I know I can run it, but do ya'll think I can either max it or run low/med and record/stream?

Desktop or laptop?: Desktop4Lyfe

Monitor resolution: Not sure yet, Pro***ly going to buy a 1080p

CPU: 750k X4 Amd 3.4GhZ, but I shall overclock to like 4.0 or so pro***ly 

Graphics card: Radeon R7 260x, 2GB

RAM:* 8 Gigerz

SSD? (Yes/No) Nope

[warriortyr 17]

So everyone who has NOT got a gaming pc or a gaming notebook, I have made a video which shows how the game runs on a non-gaming laptop.

Feel free to watch and comment:

 

The VERY interesting thing is that the difference between my integrated and my dedicated GPU is smaller than I expected. Edited March 9, 2014 by warriortyr

Hi all,

 

Before making the decision to buy the DayZ standalone alpha, I would like to know if I could run it at around 40fps on the lowest settings with a decent draw distance. My computer is 4 years old, so don't laugh at my specs... haha

 

Laptop

 

Windows 8 64bit

 

Intel Core i7 CPU Quad Core Q740 @ 1.73GHz

 

6GB DDR3 RAM

 

NVIDIA GeForce 330M with 1GB VRAM 

 

DirectX 11.0

 

No SSD

@Sarah_Ps_Sloppy_V - You are going to have a hard time running DayZ IMHO with that lappy, let alone 40 fps. Maybe at a very low resolution, everything on low/off, it may be playable. Cities might be a nightmare tho.
