Is it my Laptop or Dayz stuttering

Recommended Posts

I just bought a new lenovo y570 i5 like a week ago and everything was running fine until the update. my laptop is the first one listed on this website http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:category.details?current-catalog-id=12F0696583E04D86B9B79B0FEC01C087&current-category-id=F41BC8E1656C5F85171FBDB172571912&action=init. should it really be stuttering or lagging while i play or is it dayz?

Dayz is a terrible benchmark for performance. Go into Arma and run one of the benchmarks in the single player missions. You can then adjust your settings based on the results. Remember if your graphics are too "low" it can effect your performance just as much as too "high".

You may not be optimized to play on very low. try running the benchmark on medium settings and see if the results are the same, worse, or better.

idk i just hope when this becomes an independent game it isn't so horribly optimized i would love to play if it was ever smooth

Basically any game released is better optimized then this is, except for console ports... but even those generally run better than this.

On my mobile rig XPS 15z, with a core i7 dual core and GT 525m(overclocked to speeds of the GT 550m), I can run DayZ okay with some files loaded into ramdisk, I was able to achieve around 30~35fps in Elektro with 1366x768.

Do you have 4GB or 8GB ram ? You should be able to run at least the DayZ files in ramdisk, to improve some disk access times.

Try messing around with some optimization and tweak guides, they are very helpful to getting DayZ running smooth. I believe some startup perimeters help quite a bit, try these: -maxMem=2047 -cpuCount=2(two physical cores on that i5) -maxVRAM=(whatever the 555m has) -exThreads=7

im not sure what the startup perimeters are or how to access them im not very advanced with computers plus i try some tweak guides that i try i think are actually slowing it down actually
