I'm running DayZ (and ArmA2) with a NVidia 9800GT which works without a problem.

However, since my GPU is so bad (actually it isn't but compared to newer cards it is) the game uses my CPU to take of some heat.

Since I have a decent CPU (Intel i7 940) I can run DayZ at High grafics, but without the gimmics (HDR, AA, post-processing, etc).

The mimum specs for ArmA2 are:

- Processor: Dual Core CPU for Intel or AMD

- Memory/RAM: 1 GB

- Video Card: Nvidia Geforce 7800 / ATI Radeon 1800 or faster with Shader Model 3 and 256 MB VRAM

But I suggest to get a little better CPU for DayZ (due zed pathfinding).

So your computer should be able to run DayZ without any problems, but everything at low graphics.

your gfx card is very slow and it doesn't meet the requirements...

it tells you that the needed features are supported, but it isn't fast enough...

the minimum req is a gf 7800 which is faster than your 8200/9200...

the first digit of the model tells you what generation your card is (what features are supported)

the second digit tells you the performance class...anything below x400 is too slow...with current gen.

the older the generation, the higher the second digit needs to be...

just for a rough estimate...
