TheScruffyBandit 382 Posted March 21, 2014 How many in % is FX-8350 3.5ghz or 4.0 is Better Then FX-6300 ? ,is it worth buying just for gaming ?(FX-8350) For dayZ? There is no difference in performance between 6 or 8 cores. The game isn't capable of using that many threads. So, a 6 core and 8 core processor at the same speed will perform exactly the same. Stick with the 6 core if you already have that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chickenmcfuggits 49 Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) So assuming all the settings, tweaks and the machine itself are optimized for performance, is this playable on an AMD Athlon 2.0GHz dual core? "Playable" meaning at or above 15-20 fps. I'm asking because I've ran plenty of games that, according to the minimum requirements, shouldn't have been playable, but they were very much so. I had absolutely no problems running arma 2 and I have a lifetime of experience running and playing high-end games on computers that they weren't meant for. Has anyone had any experience trying this with a similar CPU? Gfx mem isn't so much an issue as I've frankensteined a decent card to my machine. Yes I know I am crazy... but if it CAN possibly work, I can do it. Edited March 22, 2014 by Chzy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The minimum requirement is a 3GHz athlon dual core, you're some 50% lower in clock speed on the same CPU architecture, it's just not going to run well. DayZ is also rather sensitive to memory bandwidth, so older memory controllers and slower ram like you'd find on older computers such as your dual core Athlon 64 system aren't going to do the game any favors. Time to upgrade my friend. Luckily it's intirely possible to build a decent rig for cheap these days. A new build, even a poverty mode one such as an athlon II 750 quad core, FN2 motherboard and 750/ti or r9 270 would still vastly improve your dayZ (and gaming in general) experience. and would likely cost you an affordable amount, If your graphics card is more recent purchase, you could even reuse that.

Hmm, thanks for the response. I plan on getting a new machine sometime anyways so I'll probably just go ahead and buy dayz and try it out, if it doesn't run well and isn't playable then I suppose I'll have it for later. I'm assuming I can buy/download the game once and then be able to download it again later if I want? Edited March 24, 2014 by Chzy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once you own a game on Steam on your account you can download and install it as often as required. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xenology 61 Posted March 26, 2014 So I looked around for hardware on a new gaming computer now and I wanna play DayZ on ultra graphics or at least better than average do you think this setup for a rig would work and how much do you suppose this would cost all together?
