I think those specs are all you need for modded zomboid, depends on which mods ofc.

If you lower your resolution low enough, yes

#

Guessing FPS is pretty much impossible without knowing all the variables

#

On a low resolution, absolutely. On a 4k monitor, not really

#

Zoomed in or fully zoomed out? Another major variable

thorny plover
#

Fully zoomed out sometimes

#

Also I used to play on a 3050 with 16gb ram i5 10400f wdym low settings it was running fine

nova coyote
#

I am not sure how well the Intel ARC is optimized for OpenGL applications, so I cannot be sure about its performance

#

Generally Nvidia has the best OpenGL optimization, so if you get a Nvidia card it will run better than an AMD or Intel one for the same price

#

Just due to the optimizations

#

Unless you get a Quadro card, those are unoptimized for OpenGL

thorny plover
#

I mean idk about that

#

But from benchmarks n stuff I've seen it has similar performance to rx6600 or rtx3060

#

Not many zomboid benchmark vids out there

nova coyote
#

I understand, I am just saying that benchmarks do not show the whole picture

#

Because of driver and API optimizations

thorny plover
#

Oh

nova coyote
#

Which adds to the whole "cannot guess the FPS" thing

#

There isnt really a good answer to your post

#

It should run fine on the standard zoom in 1080p is all I can say

thorny plover
#

Oh yeah they have poor open gl performance

#

From what I've just read

#

It's from 7 months ago tho

nova coyote
#

Whether its 60+ FPS or what the effect of zooming out will be is hard to say

#

PZ uses OpenGL, so thats something to consider

thorny plover
#

Is AMD good?

#

For opengl

nova coyote
#

It used to be bad, but they released a few drivers to improve it a lot

#

It still isnt on Nvidias level as far as I am aware, but its not outright bad

thorny plover
#

Oh

#

But like

#

Thing about AMD is it's like 20€ more expensive than the arc a750

nova coyote
#

I would get the AMD card personally

#

I have one and it runs PZ just fine

thorny plover
#

I could get a rx6650 for 40€ more tho which is like better than the rtx3060

nova coyote
#

This is just my personal opinion though, I have not had the pleasure of testing the ARC Cards myself yet

#

They might be good, but from what I see they are not comparable to AMD or Nvidia just yet

#

At least not in OpenGL workloads

#

In DirectX its very close

thorny plover
#

Fair enough

#

Btw

#

What GPU do u gave

#

Have

#

From AMD?

nova coyote
#

My main PC has a nvidia 4080, my secondary has the AMD RX 7700 XT

thorny plover
#

Also what do u think of the Rx 6650 xt?

thorny plover
nova coyote
#

More like broke, since they are way too expensive

thorny plover
#

😭😭🙏🙏

nova coyote
#

Yeah I understand, hope your situation improves
I do not know much about the 6650 XT, it should be perfectly fine

#

For my workloads, I would lean towards the 4060 if the price is similar enough

#

There are a few factors, since it runs AI stuff better, if you are ever interested in that, better OpenGL support and it has DLSS, if you play games that use that (which is still superior to FSR)

thorny plover
#

Yeah I mean

nova coyote
#

But it would really depend on the prices and budget

thorny plover
#

I agree on the dlss and ai stuff

#

But tbh 4060 ain't much better than the 3060 From what I've heard

nova coyote
#

For the majority of games, AMD wins on performance per dollar

thorny plover
#

And it's 300€ new

#

And rx6650xt is 240€ new

nova coyote
#

Yeah, I have to go for 4060 because the 3000 series doesnt have DLSS 3

#

Or it doesnt have frame generation

#

Or one of those things

thorny plover
#

Yeah

#

Still tho I pretty much have to go AMD rn

#

I heard fsr 3 is available on all GPUs so

#

At least that's something

nova coyote
#

I would personally recommend AMD over Intel, no shade thrown at anyone with an Arc card

#

Just for PZ specifically

thorny plover
#

Alr ty

#

Would u say uh

#

It would run like 1080p max settings modded

#

With max zoom

nova coyote
#

I have 60 FPS with max zoom on the 4080

#

Max zoom is generally not the best metric

#

Because it destroys performance regardless of the GPU

#

If you disable the last level or two from the zoom then it will run perfectly fine

#

Also B42 will have optimizations in this regard, so I think you will be totally fine with that PC

thorny plover
#

I mean to be fair correct me if I'm wrong but like

#

From what I've seen zomboid is pretty much capped at 60fps

thorny plover
nova coyote
#

Its just that the zoom feature isnt optimized in the current version, so the FPS drops a lot

thorny plover
#

I mean on max zoom

#

From what I've seen most ppl have it on like 60fps

nova coyote
#

Its not really capped, but it does limit the performance a lot

#

I can get it to 80 with a few tweaks

#

Or to 140 after a few more

#

experimental ones that I would not generally recommend

thorny plover
#

Btw

#

Is this build good enough to run multiplayer?

nova coyote
#

To run your own server? Yes it would run a small server just fine

#

For more players or a ton of mods you would want more RAM though

#

Like 8+ players

AMD openGL is much much more performant on Linux than it is on Windows btw 🐧
