Castiel789 0 Posted October 30, 2015 I just started playing DayZ Standalone again after a few months, I got a new graphics card so I was hoping to see how good the game would look, though I've been having (relatively) horrible performance compared to what I'd expect, and have tried a lot of things. On my current settings I can sometimes manage to scrape up 60fps when facing open areas or some forests etc, when looking into a city, large or small (Basically anywhere with more than 10 separate buildings I assume) my fps drops to below 30, sometimes hitting 20. I can understand my FPS dropping when looking at a city, but this much? And with my specs? I was assuming I would be getting 100 fps in non-city areas and never hitting below 60 in general, based on FPS I've received in other games. Most my settings are either on medium or low/very low, with the exception of Antialiasing and textures, which are both on high/very high. I've tried setting them as low but it didn't seem to impact my FPS very much. I've used optimization guides and I tried unparking my CPU cores, both of which didn't make much of an effect. I'm pretty stuck here with options to make the game more playable on my system. My specs are:CPU: i7 3820CPU Cooler: Kraken X61 liquid coolerGPU: GTX 980 TiMobo: Gigabyte X79 UD3PSU: Corsair GS800RAM: 16GB @1600MHzSSD: Samsung 840 EVO My CPU is generally at 3.6GHz, I tried overclocking it to around 4.2 in an attempt for more frames, though it didn't seem to do anything. Thanks for the help in advanced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rags! 1966 Posted October 30, 2015 Oh. That kind of performance. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baker. 1484 Posted October 30, 2015 turn off pp, aa on low, shadows on medium, and object detail on medium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Castiel789 0 Posted October 30, 2015 B@ker, just attempted those settings then, FPS was literally sitting on approximately the same amount, no idea why. Just some added info; My CPU usage only generally goes up to about 44%, with RAM at a lower percentage I didn't check my GPU but I'm sure a 980Ti wouldn't be bottlenecking aha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stinkenheim 249 Posted October 30, 2015 I have an i7 @4.2, a 989ti etc etc etc and average 20-30 in Cherno/elektro with dips below 20 on occasion with all settings high or very high.Sure fire way to improve your frames is to wait for he game to be completed and optimised. You can do some tweaking to config files and turning some settings up can shift workload off of the cpu but otherwise it's just the nature of the beast.Lastly, all this info has been posted hundreds of times, a quick search will provide links to different guides including one from SMoss with a breakdown of different settings. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maximumak777 (DayZ) 23 Posted October 30, 2015 DayZ's performance would be terrible if you had a NASA grade PC. It is not optimised for public builds yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WilliamTheConqueror 81 Posted October 30, 2015 I am jealous of your frames. I would kill for 20 in cities. Try 5 in cities, and MAYBE 20-30 in the country. This is with a 750ti and a AMD Anthelon II 645 4x on a solid state. WITH all the edits and file changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish. 4886 Posted October 30, 2015 Oh. That kind of performance. This is exactly why I stopped by... :P 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
