This is really tough to run at medium settings on 60 fps, at least in my eyes. I think you can count on around 30-40 FPS (stable), but not much more than that.

if I try to play this game at 1080p or 720p, how much fps should i get?

Bretgrenz

Since DayZ is mostly a CPU-based game, I wouldn't worry too much. I think you're able to run this game on 720p at medium settings on around 40 fps, or 1080p/low at 30 fps.
