Raidkill 0 Posted April 8, 2017 So I got a new PC the other week and I just installed DayZ. I was told it would run DayZ fine but I tried just now and it runs at an average of 17/18 FPS on "Very Low". I was wondering what graphics card you DayZ players use. Also, if I need to upgrade, what card do you recommend for DayZ and other games? (My Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GT 630) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[Gen]Adzic 241 Posted April 8, 2017 Whoever told you DayZ would run fine with any GPU was blowing smoke up your ass. A GT630 is not a good card for today's standards, it'll probably work but don't expect miracles, I'd say getting 17/18 is actually quite good. I have a GTX 970 and see frames in cities easily drop as low as that. More to the point, What processor do you have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Settings on very low does not equal good FPS. If your settings are on very low, your processor will probably do most of the work rather than the GPU. Sometimes raising your settings can give you a better FPS than lowering. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, I am also quite new to computer gaming, so I do not know much about it at all.. But my processor is "Intel Core i5-7600 CPU @ 3.50GHz" (P.S Just to clarify, I wasn't told it would run on any GPU but I was told it would run on the GeForce GT630) Edited April 8, 2017 by Raidkill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted April 9, 2017 The cpu is fine, the GT630 is the problem, an old card and the little sister of the then excellent GTX660 (2014). Check to see if you are able to change the GPU in future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(My Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GT 630) The processor that you have in your rig have a better graphic card in it.. just unplug the gt 630 and play with intel graphics... buy a new GPU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
