applejaxc 2500 Posted March 1, 2014 Why did you only color code processor? Putting all of your parts in one line like that makes it hard to read >.> Anyway: You should be doing fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, I think your problem lies in the fact that you're mixing AMD and Intel parts. I have a quad core i7 haswell 4770k 3.5, 32gb ram, 2x gtx 760 4gb, and an SSD. I get a wide range of FPS, 30 - 90 in cities with my graphics maxed out, 120 - 170 in the empty wilderness. The important part is not what your FPS is though, it's how stable your gameplay is, and you can't make this game play any better than putting it on an SSD. Simply put however, your game should play better than that with that spec of a PC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayZDaily 1 Posted March 1, 2014 i get 20-40 frames on SA & 10-20 on the mod .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dchil 829 Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) I'd hazard a guess that your CPU is letting you down. DayZ is currently "Optimized" for intel. An I5 will do you quite nicely, just makesure it's clock speed as standard is over 2.5GHz. DayZ just doesn't use more than 3-4 cores. But don't take my word for it because i am tired, wait for somebody to come in and confirm or deny what i'm saying. Also your graphics card doesn't compare to the newer GTX700 series cards that most people who get great FPS use. Though many people would love to get 20-40 frames, i never get above 25. This isn't an easy to process game like BF4 or COD. Edited March 1, 2014 by Dchil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THAT BEING SAID, go into your launch options and add this line of code (all at once) -nosplash -noPause -cpuCount=8 -maxMem=8192 _______________________________________________________ Be aware this code is set up for the individual OP, and should anyone else use it you have to set the number of cores to the number your processor has and memory to your max memory (no more than 16gb) in megabytes. OP this should help DayZ utilize your PC more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
