Yoyo 0 Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 My current specs on my computer are intel 7400 3.0ghz 1x8 ddr4 2400mhz ram gtx 1060 3gb arma on an ssd I still suffer bad FPS in game if anyone could tell me what I should most likely uprgrade that would make a big difference on the Olympus servers Thanks.

A computer like that shouldn't be running the game too bad unless you are trying to max out the graphics in Kavala. If you are really looking for an upgrade then get an 8700k cpu as that will benefit arma the most but honestly you shouldn't be that low currently. 1 Quote Link to comment

Get another stick of ram and arma should run a lot better, did this a while back and it really helped 3 Quote Link to comment
Yoyo 0 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 I’ve also heard it runs far better with dual channel ram with faster mhz. I have to run it on fairly low and in Kavala I’m still gettig about 25 FPS. Quote Link to comment

When I went from 8 to 16 gigs of ram i almost doubled my frames... 2 Quote Link to comment

McBear 21 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Need to upgrade your cpu and 8 more gigs of ram at least and the 1060 3gb prob falls a bit short. I have ryzen 7 2700x. 16gb ddr4 3200mhz and gtx 1060 6gb and I get 60-70 normally. Dips to 50 during kavala square shenanigans. I'm waiting to see what the 1180/ti is looking like next month, otherwise I'm getting a 1080ti rog strix. Keep in mind, if you're going Intel. Ryzens am4 socket will be around for at least another 2 years, Intel will be changing again next generation. That's what swayed me to the 2700x instead of the 8700k. Quote Link to comment
Juno 11 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) Arma 3 relies on two things, CPU and RAM/storage. 3.0 Ghz is decent, but not ideal (Arma performs on Intel believe it or not). However, 2400mHz is where your most likely suffering. Overclock dat shit to 3200mhz and you'll see quite a difference mate. Also, more doesn't always mean better imo. I have two 4gb sticks oc'ed to 3200mhz and my frames never drop below 60fps. Edited June 29, 2018 by xAnonymousx Quote Link to comment

I have a similar pc I personally don't think you will, the Real Virtuality 4 engine that arma is built on is old, outdated and is only able to use a single core. it's also very sensitive to storage/memory speeds. If you have the extra cash though go for it, but if you're able to overclock it that's a budget friendly option to stabilize/boost your frames a bit. I was an idiot and sourced all my parts individually when Bitcoin was a big thing so I bought memory at twice the price it is now lol Quote Link to comment
JAMIE 249 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Yeah I thought that was a better CPU that and ram are your big issue the GPU can wait but if you play other games you may just want to do that also. and your frames will always be shit in arma really 1060 6gb 16 gb ram I7 7700k at 1440 I get 30-40 in kavala and 60 avg overall and no I wont play on 1080 ever again Quote Link to comment
