DayZ benchmark on RTX 3060: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
DayZ FPS with a RTX 3060 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 102FPS min 69Good | 72FPS min 58Good | 34FPS min 30Acceptable |
| High | 132FPS min 90Excellent | 94FPS min 75Good | 44FPS min 39Acceptable |
| Medium | 173FPS min 117Excellent | 123FPS min 98Excellent | 58FPS min 51Acceptable |
| Low | 224FPS min 152Excellent | 159FPS min 127Excellent | 75FPS min 66Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 33% | CPU 12% | GPU 46% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3060. There is 21% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders DayZ at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 3060 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 102 | 128 | 148 |
| 1440p | 72 | 97 | 119 |
| 4K | 34 | 49 | 63 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3060 does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the RTX 3060 has headroom to spare in DayZ: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RTX 3060 Enough for DayZ?
The RTX 3060 delivers 102 FPS at 1080p Ultra in DayZ. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 72 FPS and at 4K 34 FPS at Ultra quality.
