liquidje 38 Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) Sorry, but I am afraid your graphics card is not gonna cut it. It is a new series (GTX6##), but the slowest model, which is really designed mainly for general usage and play some light games. Unfortunately, DayZ is not a light game, it is very demanding. Either upgrade your graphics card or live with the framerate. I am actually surprised you can even maintain that framerate. I don't know how you'll manage frameratewise in the cities though. To maybe push a few more frames per second out of it download the newest drivers from nvidia and set the game as low as possible.

liquidje 38 Posted January 8, 2014 Best bang for your bucks is r270x for around $250 based on amazon (I'm from the Netherlands, I don't really know the regular prices in the US). If you want to go Nvidia get the 660 (Ti), which is on par. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lukeyguy 17 Posted January 8, 2014 http://www.twitch.tv/lirik - Settings below and he only gets 60 or below FPS its Dayz FPS as all ways been poor. So don't waste loads money if your are only looking to pay Dayz on your comp. :) Gaming PC: CPU: i7 3770k GPU: EVGA GTX 670 FTW RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8gb KBD: Logitech G710+ MOUSE: Feenix Nascita MNTR: BenQ 120HZ XL2420T AUDIO: Astro A50's Wireless Headset Streaming PC: CPU: i7 3770k GPU: EVGA GeForce GT 630 RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4gb KBD: Logitech G710+ MOUSE: Logitech G400 -Headset: Logitech G430 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidje 38 Posted January 9, 2014 are these the most new models? once again thank you for all your help. im new to all this graphics card stuff. haha and what about this the gtx760? Oh yeah, that one too. The gtx 760 is on par with the gtx 660Ti, so pick whichever you like (look up some benchmarks for comparisons). The 760 is newer, but newer is not always better (for example, your gtx610 is worse than a high end gtx5##, and probably even a high-end gtx4##. Radeon is the newest model. To be honest, whichever you pick will more or less be a matter of taste and which one "feels" right. There are small variations in price and performance though. It's hard to pick one over the other. If you need anything let me know. I'm sure you will be very happy with your new upgrade :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
