shitty pc, shit fps settings recomendations?

[sxcblood 36]

well basically my pc is shit having a cpu from 2002 and 1gig of ram

i can run most games on low but arma seems to fuck my pc over compleatly, if i zoom my gun in my game will freeze for 10seconds, giving the zombie plenty of time to hit me thus making me lose my first 2 weapons

the only upside abouth my pc is my video card is there a way to make arma run more on my video card memory instead of my cpu?

..Buy a new computer. That's my advice..

And ask someone to help you with getting a new computer, you obviously don't know much. (No offence.)

sadly upgradeing is the way to go id look into building your own desktop as thats the cheapest and most effective route its easy to do ^_^ and if your not sure what you need to get grab a nerdy friend and some free money and have fun

EDIT: i personaly like tiger direct for my parts. you can build a decent gaming rig thats easy to upgrade for about 400$ ~ (depending on how nice parts you wanna get)

if you're moving up from a 2002 era PC, then I'd recommend craigslist for the cheapest route. anything on there for $100 is going to be loads better than what you have now... just don't buy from a student, they tend to have low end cheap PCs that they then proceed to trash.

i live on a tight budget, after paying rent and food i got abouth 40$ left for randoms each month, a new pc isnot an option for me

[pyroxfire 10]

you get 400 $ free money? why dont you just get a few parts one money and the rest laster also 400$ was the price of building a pretty good gaming rig you can go abit cheaper

sadly i have no cash for a real upgrade unless any of you know a good cpu for under 20-30$

I hate to break it to you, but you cannot play this game with that PC. At the very least you need a better CPU and additional RAM...if upgrading or buying a new PC isn't an option, then playing DayZ will not be an option either.

EDIT: If you can upgrade at all...start with the RAM. 1GB of DDR or DDR2 just isn't going to cut it...sorry mate.
