Hello, I have an iMac and I am running Windows 7 on my mac via parallels(bootcamp refuses to work). I know macs aren't gaming computers to any extent(and trust me, I would rather have a pc right now) but this is what I'm stuck with for the time being. Specs: 2.5 Ghz intel quad core i5 8 GB of ram(only 4 GB for my windows partition) AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1 GB DayZ is a great mod on the Arma 2 engine and is extremely fun, when there isn't tons of lag. However, as the game has been updated, the lag has gotten lesser and lesser but is still not optimal for me. It seems that my computer lags most times I zoom in, look around extremely fast, aim, or head into a big city like Elektro. I have 2 theories. The minimum requirement for RAM for DayZ is 4GB which is what I have on my windows partition. With the holiday season coming up, I have been thinking about upgrading to 16 GB of RAM. Then, I could put 8GB of RAM on my windows partition. My other idea would be internet speed. My internet speed has been horrible and I have read that that contributes to a large portion of lag to even people with great computers. If I were to change my internet provider to a faster one, couldn't that stop some of the lag? Would either of these ideas stop any lag? If not what am I able to do that would? Thank you
