Can I play Dayz Standalone on this computer?

[massason]

I was wondering if I could play Dayz Standalone on this computer even if I have to use the lowest settings. Please message me or reply to me. I don't a lot about computers.

if you honestly do know that little try a tool like this instead:

you'll need java installed and cookies enabled.

Even on lowest settings? I seem to be able to play Ghost Recon Phantoms on it well on high settings so...

I did it and it says click here for the latest (whatever it is). So do I need to upgrade it because there are no X's for minimum requirements. They all have circles with checks in them and CPU speed has an exclamation mark.

hold on, i'm doing you a favor and looking up the specifications of that machine, what sort of graphics card does it have though? i don't see one listed onboard or otherwise.
also, you have the 4GB memory one? that's a bit low, you won't get the best performance on games that aren't optimized yet, but honestly SA is a lot more cpu intensive i believe at current.

[edit] nevermind, i see it now, should be playable, but horrible performance [/edit]

Depends how you classify 'play'.. if you want to watch a slide show on the lowest settings, that is the pc for you..

if you want to actually play and enjoy the game.. spend more than $500.. as Too-DAMN-Much said, it is very CPU intensive.. and that pc runs the GFX FROM the CPU.. so you're asking the CPU to slog its guts out to just execute the game, you're also asking the CPU to draw everything as well.. not gunna end well.. :(

You can. Although i must warn u even with "big machines" , the game still has FPS problems .
Game is far from being finished.

I actually upgraded the RAM to 8GB if that helps. So you're saying I CAN play it but it'll be laggy on low settings. I looked on the website you told me to go to and it says that my computer passes the minimum for play Dayz and is in the middle of minimum and recommended.

even those of us like me with $1,500 computers built with all afermarket parts for performance don't get a good frame rate, it depends how much you can tolerate a bad frame rate, i guess though.

[Do You Know Tyler Durdan?]

If you want a laptop look into Asus G-series they are gaming laptops and better than alienware you can get the same specs as an alienware at nearly a third of the price
but basically if you want to play any games and not just be wasting money DO NOT get a HP.
Oh... you already have it.... why didn't you just list the specs instead of sending us to a website that sells it then? That's misleading. Oh well, good luck with that pos.

Please do yourself a favor and build your own PC. It's easy, cheaper, and you get to appreciate it a lot more when You put it all together. There is a ton of guides, websites, and people on forums who'd give you advice or point you in the right direction. That laptop in the link is not worth the trouble You'd experience playing games on. I'm just being honest. My PC isn't anywhere near the greatest, but I built it and on a budget just for gaming.

ASRock 970DE3/U3S3 AMD 770 DDR3 AM3+ Motherboard
Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB SATA III 7200 RPM 16 MB Cache Hard Drive
AMD Phenom II X4 965 B.E. AM3 3.4Ghz
Kingston Technology HyperX Blu 8GB DDR3
EVGA GeForce GT 640 2048MB GDDR3 Dual DVI, mHDMI Graphics Card
Cooler Master Hyper N520 - CPU Cooler with Copper Base and 5 Heat Pipes
Lite-On Super AllWrite 24X DVD+/-RW Dual Layer Drive
HP 2311x LED monitor

All for around $685.00 or so when I bought parts. Like I said not the greatest, but it plays games really well considering my laptop cost more and sucks at playing Counterstrike. Hope it helps!

Edit: oops just read that you already own it sorry for the long reply.

I have to say no. If you do get to play you will have to play it at the lowest settings and even lower alot more in the config file and still even get like 20FPS

will that cpu cut the mustard for this game, I know they were powerhouses when released, but do they stand up to it now?

[F4c3m4n]

Yes I have good gameplay most of the time (gets lower fps in cities, but nothing to bad). Compared to playing games on a laptop, it hasn't let me down yet. I hope it will get a little better when Dayz is officially released. For the money I spent I'm happy for now.
