![]() I don't notice any increase in FPS from the game using this card over the one it replaced, which was an ATI Radeon HD 5850 (Sapphire brand, 2GB). My rig isn't poor - I got the GTX 970 before buying Shadows of Mordor, which I play on Ultra settings WITH the HD Texture Pack enabled at a smooth 60-70+ FPS and it murders the game. Am I just unlucky? I see people with worse rigs having recorded YouTube videos at great FPS, or streaming on Twitch. So, my DayZ.profile is: sceneComplexity=750000 (auto-set by one of the graphic options) shadowZDistance=50 viewDistance=1800 preferredObjectViewDistance=1800 And my Launch Properties string is: -nosplash -noPause -noborder -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=4 -maxMex=8192 -maxvram=4096 I have every other program closed when playing except for Fraps which I use purely for screenshots and checking my FPS - I don't record videos or stream. I have not done Core Unparking, RAMdisk, Priority or Overclocking as I value my system stability over getting an unoptimised game to run better. This particular article brings together every suggestion I've seen to date. The settings played at are: Resolution: 1920x1080 Texture Detail: Very High Texture Filtering: Very High Object Quality: High Terrain Quality: Very High Clouds: Normal Shadows Quality: Low Antialiasing: Disabled Alpha To Coverage: Disabled Edge Smoothing: FXX Very High HDR Quality: Low Post-process Quality: Disabled Bloom: 0 I have also followed all the advice given on the various reddit threads about gaining FPS. I've also heard that any settings 'Normal' and below then fall onto the CPU causing additional strain. I've noticed no noticeable increase in frame rate when playing 'all low' to the Nvidia 'optimised' settings. I use Nvidia's "GeForce Experience" program which optimises the graphic settings of games so that they perform at their best based on my drivers (latest) and PC specs. I've noticed no improvement in performance by disabling the second monitor. My rig is: CPU: i5-3570k 3.4GHz (not overclocked) RAM: 8GB DDR3 Corsair Vengeance (2x 4GB) GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 4GB (Gigabyte Windforce 3, Gaming G1 model) (not overclocked) I have dual-screen 1920x1080 (x2) one plays the game, the other has a website-based map open. Disclaimers out of the way - The nuts and bolts are that I get about 40-60 FPS in the wilderness, which is playable, but 15-30 FPS in cities and it's unplayable. I also understand that this is Early Access, that optimisation is nowhere near done, and I could simply just be out of favour with the DayZ Performance God unlike people of similar, or even worse rigs. Hi all, Disclaimer: I know there are other threads like this, but each rig is unique (like a snowflake) and I'm simply hoping to get some pointers specific to my setup, or hear the experience of other people with the same/similar rig. That said, I'll use low object quality for now given the slight bump in FPS, and just exercise caution with distant doors - I'd rather be able to play better 50% of the time with a slightly increased chance of death, than have it play poorly all the time in which case I'm likely to die anyway. High Object Quality (Nvidia Optimised): 16-24 FPS (impossible to play in a firefight) Low Object Quality (Fluxley Suggestion): 22-30 FPS (playable at points) I have however noticed that Object quality relates to the distance at which open doors on buildings replace the closed door texture - compared to 'High', 'Very Low' seriously reduces the range at which these textures are drawn, meaning that someone could be stood in the hallway of an open building with a clear shot at me, and I wouldn't be able to see them simply because having 'low' Object quality means they appear to be behind a closed door, to me. Then I repeated this with a different Object quality setting. Day time, on a server with 2/40 people, I went to the main strip of Cherno and ran run and down a length of the road, looking left and right, and ran back to my starting point. I was using Xsplit Gamecaster rather than FRAPS to measure my FPS. ![]() Just very lucky, I guess? EDIT: Fluxley, I've tried your suggestion and here are my findings. I've yet to come across someone who's been passionate about DayZ Standalone, saying how they're going to stream videos, and then found they couldn't because it wouldn't work for them. When Rome 2 Total War was released, a chap called LionHeart had been doing videos about its development and when it released, he was streaming and YouTubing the game perfectly whilst everyone else was running it like dogpoo. It seems strange to me that popular YouTubers/Twitchers all have systems that allow them to play when everyone else is in the mire. ![]() Thanks for the replies so far guys - Fluxley I'll try your suggestion and beans you if it helps.
