Hi may update ur graphic-card Software (Drivers) to prevent this Aspekt

 

Other way try to enable 3D Settings or something in ur AMD catalyst Firmware for radeon (if amd graphic Card) this should also be available vor nvidia.

 

If is still remains Play with the Game Settings.

 

More suggestions i cant suggest.

 

Greetings

Welcome to DayZ!

 

First, make sure you have little to nothing running in windows when you play DayZ as it's VERY CPU intensive.

 

Have a look at this video. He explains what most of the settings do and which ones affect FPS the most. I'm running pretty close to the second setup with a few things tweaked to make it prettier.

Config-wise, these are the ones that helped me the most.

 

My Documents/DayZ other Profiles/Username/Username.DayZProfile

 

->

sceneComplexity=500000;
shadowZDistance=50;
viewDistance=1600;
preferredObjectViewDistance=1000;
 
 
Keep some settings higher to take load off your CPU, your GPU is more than decent enough (shadows etc on high), Object Detail on Normal (this one eats fps, but lower than Normal will go at a cost of visibility in cities etc.. windows don't render etc)
 
Keep AA off, it causes inputlag and even slightly worse fps, even with the best GPU.. game just feels smoother.
 
Most importantly, download CrystalDiskMark and check your harddrives speed.. port DayZ to your fastest Harddrive (it makes a huge difference, most people experiencing lag are running DayZ from a low quality Harddrive.. and DayZ is constantly reading files (in a bad optimized way) straight from your harddrive. Want more FPS? Go with an SSD.
