[Tjm999]

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with the following build, Id like to play the following
-Minecraft
-DayZ
-Arma III

Please tell me what I can expect performance wise.

arma 3 is a very harsh game and poorly optimized. My high end pc still runs it with lag. if youre planning to run it maxed settings, you'll need a hardcore computer.

Okay I would like to play it on Normal Settings at 720p

Invest in a better processor. (fx series or i5) and you'll need a dedicated gfx. 750ti or I recommend getting the r9 280x right now, bc they are super cheap and they can be compared to the gtx 770.

ArmaII - http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=1855&game=ArmA%20III - i3, 4gb ram. gtx260 - easey peqasey.

Check the rest of the games yourself.

A10 7850 is a good apu but won't get near a gtx. You need to get a PC with discreet graphics card eg

CPU: Intel Core i5-4430 3.0GHz Quad-Core Processor ($182.06 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: ASRock H97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($74.78 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory ($59.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($48.49 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 270X 4GB TWIN FROZR Video Card ($175.98 @ Newegg)
Case: Corsair Graphite Series 230T Black ATX Mid Tower Case ($49.99 @ NCIX US)
Power Supply: XFX 550W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($44.99 @ NCIX US)
Total: $636.28

I noticed that there is no dedicated graphics in your build. the graphic performance of 7850K will hardly match a R7 250, so if you plan to play Dayz on a 1080p monitor with decent settings, you are very likely to be disappointed. My advice will be to drop liquid cooler and SSD (as they are not essential for a gaming build) for a dedicated graphics such as R9 270x or R9 280, which will definitely give you a better experience.

I second this build

 

[Tjm999]

Will this play DayZ Standalone (I need someone with experience because I have heard negatives from people without it and positives with it)

 

[i7Baby]

Put the details into the Game Debate screen for the game to get your answer.

 

[Tjm999]

I do not know how to use it, is there anyway someone could do it for me?
Thanks!

 

[i7Baby]

The PC will kill it.

See http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/R9_270X_Gaming/6.html

It'll let you play high end games too.

Will this build play DayZ Standalone at 1080p on Normal Settings?
