DayZ was released in 2018. No published benchmark of DayZ is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or AMD R9 270X as the minimum graphics card, an entry-level card by today's standards.

Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for DayZ, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.

No measured data yet. We have not found a published benchmark of DayZ with a source we can link. The figures below come from our model and carry a ±30% band. How the estimate works.
