DayZ GPU Help

[FrankFisher 46]

I've been searching the internet to see whether the Nvidia GeForce 650M graphics card would run DayZ, but couldn't find anything. I need to be really convinced that its good, apparently it runs most games on high settings-http://www.notebookc...0M.71887.0.html

Thanks

650M is a bit bad for Arma2. Probably with lowest settings you'll be able to play but it won't be pretty.

Which CPU you have? It makes all the difference in arma.

Intel i7-3610QM or something

Cpu should be more than enough and might compensate for the lower gpu. Arma2 is fortunately very flexible GPU-wise. Like I said, you'll most likely will run the game ok but not with high settings, maybe not even with medium.

Gah that's stupid I'm would have to pay over $1000 just for GT650M, if that's how it is I'd have to spend a fortune to get high settings

Yeah, I know, gaming laptops are damn expensive and Arma2 is VERY demanding although it's 3 years old game by now.

For $1000 you could get a much better gaming desktop.
