Rybur 2 Posted September 5, 2012 Hello everyone I have tried everything to optimize DayZ but it keeps stuck between 12-20 FPS. My pc specs are:CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4400Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce 210 silentRam: 3 GB DDR2Motherboard: P5PL2-EI would like to know if you have a way of increasing my FPS to 30+ i'm not asking much. I'm considering an upgrade on my hardware so give me some suggestions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaslr83 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Probably not, my pc is a little better than that and it does the same thing. I think our pc's are just old and trash, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shiro-Austin 8 Posted September 5, 2012 The main problems you have are your CPU and graphics card, consider upgrading your CPU to a i5-2500k, and the graphics card to a ASUS GT520 Silent. The CPU is roughly £160, and the graphics card around £25, that should bring you up to 30, and with a extra gig of RAM, you might get 40-50 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IncognitoNico 71 Posted September 5, 2012 with that PC you're pretty much stuck on 12 fps, you'll have to use that until you get something better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gavin0101 17 Posted September 5, 2012 A quad core AMD Phenom or similar (not sure what AMD chips are upto lately...i use Intel)4 GB DDR3 RamAnd ATI Gfx card.Decent motherboard .... gigabyte or asus or something similar.Try this. around $500 if assembled yourself. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
averageterror 3 Posted September 5, 2012 Look, I sometimes truggle to get 40-60 with i5-2500k/24GB-DDR3/AMDHD5870 - 1920x1080/very high everything except textures high - post normal - no MSAA - FXAA high(sharp)So... there is that. ARMA2 is not even DX10/11 game so graphics is not streamlined much(really, dx10/11 is different from 9 in mostly optimalizations that allows modern games to produce great graphics with less demands on cputime/shader times) and engine is huge in what is calculated, therefore it is CPU load heavy.You really cannot go much higher with FPS on your current setup.

Rybur 2 Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) OK, thank you guys for your support. I'm keeping my graphics card but I will change my processor to an AMD Phenom II X4 965, my motherboard to an ASUS MB M5A78L-M LX and switching my 3GB of DDR2 ram to 4GB of DDR3 ram. I hope it gets a better performance in DayZ and in other games that I play. In the future I might upgrade my graphics card.
