Is DayZ Standalone a CPU heavy game?

[ManOfDisguise]

Just wondering cuz I get around 23 fps in Elektro w a gtx 770 + 8350 but my friend gets around 70fps in Elektro w a 760 and a 4770k. We even tried at the same graphics settings.

 

 

EDIT: NVM I FOUND OUT ITS MY 8350 THAT CAUSING THE LOW FPS ISSUES. AMD 8 CORE PROCESSORS DONT GO GOOD WITH THE GAME

It is in alpha and i heard somewhere that there is a patch coming for better performance

Yes. ARMA's engine has always been CPU heavy.

[Joshyy]

It's everything intensive, you've got it, it'll max it. 

[legopc]

isnt dayz heavely un-optimesed?

oooohohhhhhhhh yea

Yes, the arma engine i very CPU heavy but is also very optimized. It only supports 4 cores native and is a 32-bit game so can only used 4GB of RAM. Also no SLI or crossfire support. 

[Unhelpful]

If an 8350 is slowing it down then it is heavily CPU demanding, but only heavily single core optimized.

70fps wtf , what settings does he have ?

[Ebinlaw]

I have GTX 780 + 3570k and it runs around 40FPS @1440p with Normal/High settings

for arma 3 i got 40+ FPS increase when i got a 4770k, its fucking dumb

It's in alpha, and not even slightly multithreaded yet. Anyone not running a decent Intel gets terrible performance right now. Im usually at 35-50

[Nicolas]

the engine likes hyper-threading, it's just that, I get around 30 fps on cherno with an i5

I wonder how the game would perform in Mantle.

It doesn't support mantle

better late than never

<~~~ plays dayz on 6300 gets 35 to 90 fps

Optimize the Cfg and launch options

The graphics API is not the bottleneck the constant updating and such of the map makes it not perform well

Many settings in the Real Virtuality engine use the CPU on lower settings and the GPU on higher settings.

Read up on which ones to put on HIGH or ULTRA for GPU use.

 

The Bohemia forum has a decade of information on getting the best results.

the cpu is the bottleneck, mantle would help alleviate that bottleneck 

 

bohemia suck at multithreading

You just restated what I said, what was the point for you to reply
