Surviv0r1969 151 Posted May 2, 2016 i had been thinking about this program for a while, its on steam called cpucores. supposedly boosting fps in games..... its on sale now 25% off so i decided for the sake of a few pound to give it a go, if it dont work ill get a steam refund. OMG well impressed, we all know berezino is shit for fps 15-20, with cpucores i get 30-40. i got a top end pc too so was surprised at the difference it made in dayz. i dont know what it does to the cores and threads or if its easy to do yourself all i know is the fps boost is amazing and really surprised me. heres the product on steam... http://steamcommunity.com/app/384300/ and before anyone says something its not my program so get nothing from sales, im not on a commission, just thought it may help you all the way it has me with dayz. well worth the money to boost it like that. i have i7 6700k, 16g ram, cpu @4.00 ghx (boost to 4.60), nvidia 970 dayz played all on object= high, terrain= very high, clouds= normal, shadow= low, antianalising= disabled, alpha coverage= disabled, edge smoothing= fxaa very high, hdr= low, ambient= disabled, postprocess= disabled, video me=- auto, texture detail= very high, texture filtering= very high Clouds= normal, shadows= low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hrdrok 183 Posted May 2, 2016 The new renderer should be out pretty soon. I imagine you will get stellar performance after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 1631 Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) This program goes somewhere between placebo and bullshit that you shouldn't throw money at. No 1:1 comparison in your video. You watched in different directions and that can make a freaking huge difference. Edited May 2, 2016 by St. Jimmy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just Caused 423 Posted May 2, 2016 I bet it just unparked your parked cores and maybe killed some non-important applications. There's not much thing that that program can do, and certainly it can't over-clock your CPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puppetworx 474 Posted May 2, 2016 I had a look at the product page and it explains exactly what it does. All pretty simple things (setting affinity/priority, disabling HT, etc.), you could script a batch file to do the same thing. I've done that in the past for a couple of games; GTA V - it's launcher would nail the CPU, and Natural Selection 2 - it gets CPU bound late game so every extra clock matters. It's actually surprising PC gaming has come this far without Microsoft, Valve, AMD or NVidia creating a tool that does exactly this. Windows is designed for general use and doesn't come optimized for gaming out of the box. This looks like a quick and easy optimization tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kohlbar 270 Posted May 3, 2016 Isn't overclocking your CPU like... bad for it? Really tired of people having to resort to all these fancy "unparking" and "overclocking" tricks to get DayZ to run acceptably. I just have all my sets on minimum and rarely go under 30 in cities. Looking forward to the day when none of this shit will matter and the game will just run well on decent PCs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to the day when none of this shit will matter and the game will just run well on decent PCs. Running anything at higher power levels than they were designed for is always going to be detrimental to it. However with proper cooling and research overclocking is a perfectly reasonable and safe process. However, the difference in frame rates is usually at best in the lower teens percentages so on an average FPS of 20 in cities you would be doing AMAZEBALLS getting 25 after a good overclock. Play around with your settings, I've played and set DayZ up on at least a dozen machines now and there is a max/min limit of FPS and quality you can achieve no matter what hardware you're using. In other words, there are places that you will always get the same frames regardless of whether you have everything on low or high.

THEGordonFreeman 664 Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) Proccess Lasso https://bitsum.com/ does the exact same thing... and it's free. Been using it for a few days, on average, with 4770K, I get 5 - 9 more FPS in cherno/Elektro/Zeleno. Edited May 3, 2016 by THEGordonFreeman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have older museum CPU, overclock the shit out of it, since you'll but new one soon, I hope. Some CPUs, for example my FX8320E is recommended to be overclocked because it has really large potentional ( it's even written on box ). Yeah, my PC gets overheated sometimes but I have installed some fans that cool it down by press of switch on case. It's not that bad for CPU if you have good heating and if you overclock it to understandable level. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
