Running DayZ in 4k

[SERGEANT]

thinking of replacing my gtx 1060 with an rtx 3080. Any chance that could run DayZ in 4k at 60 fps?

[Punisher]

Yes. Geforce RTX 3070 here. I9 10850K. Max settings.
Never below 100 FPS.

Maybe avoid the first generation of Zotac 3080.

Running a 5700 on 2k and never dipped under the 70 FPS Freesync.... with a 3080 and gsync i reckon 4k would be easy with a decent CPU & RAM!!
Good Luck!

Yea Anarchy does for sure

If your cpu and ram is like a potato, even a 3080 should give playable fps, but not the highest. With fast hardware, sure the 3080 will do a job good.

What i mean, without any info about cpu and ram its like playing russian roulette to give you a clear no or yes to your question.

I5 4400 processor, 16 gb ram

Would an rtx 3080 fit in the same slot as a gtx 1060?

I'm no expert, but that CPU is too weak. I run a RTX2080Ti 11GB with an i5 7600 and I am planning to upgrade that to an i7 9th gen. (The highest compatible to my MOBO)

I don't think one can slot something as advanced as the 3080 into an old rig and expect it to work optimally, it won't. I also think that with 3080 let loose, 2080 prices would be easing down, making the 2080 the savvy choice for gamers.

When I upgraded from my 1070 to the 2080, I upgraded Mobo and Ram to keep up with the card. Also my case has 8 fans to keep everything cool, you can see the full spec on my Steam profile.

I run Dayz in 4K anywhere between 60 and 70FPS.

Sergeant, dont get me wrong - but with your current cpu it really would be wasted money.
I would go with a 3070 and take the rest of the money to ugrade now (or in the next months) the board/cpu/ram with a "cheap" bundle.

Im using much faster highend oc hardware and my cpu&ram is still a bottleneck in a few games.

As above, that CPU is going to be an insane bottleneck, you're going to have so much wasted performance it really doesn't make sense. Though to be fair, at 4k most of the workload will be on the GPU anyway but you're still going to be bottlenecked

Ok thank you guys for the advice. I'll hold off until I can upgrade everything.

[SERGEANT]

Ok. Im building and ordering a new tower tonight with an rtx3080. Budget is up to 1,300. Any advice?

[SERGEANT]

Ok I just spent 1,800 on a Xidax pc

Motherboard MSI MPG Z490 GAMING EDGE WIFI
Processor INTEL CORE i5 10400 6 CORE 4.3GHz
Memory Xidax Extreme DDR4 3200MHz Memory - 16GB
Power Supply SEASONIC 650W GOLD POWER SUPPLY

That should provide you a very decent DayZ experience, in fact the only game that is going to give you any problems would be Cybepunk at 4k

[GobboKirk]

That should be a rather sweet upgrade for you for sure :)

I hope so. It's a good way to celebrate topping 8,000 hours i suppose lol

Holy hell, yeah after that many hours you may as well have the best experience you can afford
