I just got a PC built and these are the specs
Intel Core i7-4770 Haswell 3.4GHz (3.9GHz turbo) Quad-Core 8000K
Intel Socket 1150/1155 CPU fan
MSI B85M-E33, Onboard Video, HD Audio, GB LAN, USB3.0, HDMI
16GB (2x8GB) PC14900 DDR3 1866 Dual Channel (high performance memory)
HD Onboard 3D graphics Dual head, HDMI (only if listed with board)
500.0 GB Hitachi 7200RPM SATA2, UDMA 300 8m cache
LG 22x DVD Recorder Dual Layer +R/RW -R/RW
Realtek HD digital audio (onboard)
Ethernet network adapter (onboard)
Apevia X-Dreamer-4 Black and Green, front USB 2.0 & 3.0, Temp. display, Hot swap HDD
Windows 8.1 (64 bit)
I got this PC to do gaming and music production and asked around and was told these specs would be good. Unfortunately, I am getting very bad frame-rate on the first game I bought, Day-Z (0-5 FPS) when I try to run it anywhere close to high settings. I have to play it on Very Low visuals to make gameplay "tolerable". Considering I bought a custom PC for 900 dollars I think it should be running better than this. The PC is 1 day old and I was wondering if there is something I can do to fix my problems such as issuing any of these specs aren't cutting it, if I have to update new drivers, ETC or if there is something I can do to break in my new computer. Any help would be appreciated. I am very frustrated.
