I7 3770K

[carstensen 121]

Getting this cpu soon, Is it good for arma?

And how much fps do you get

My specs will be

I7 3770k

GTX 1050 TI

8GB RAM

120GB SSD which I got my windows on

1TB hdd

 

[maiko 132]

no, cpu is shit. you might as well save up for an i7 4770k or 4790k and more ram and a new motherboard if you're up for it.

[monster 5668]

maybe 70 on medium settings?

[Civak 1731]

Maybe 30-40 on Olympus

CPU is outdated, you'd want something newer and preferably be able to OC it. ARMA 3 is all about how far you can push your CPU.

I have a i5 from ages ago and i run on a steady 40 frames everywhere

Go to kavala or pyrgos on a busy day.

I did, 20 frames at minimum

CPU will definitely be your bottleneck. I run a gtx 970, 16gb of ram on a ssd with a 4790k and average 50-80 frames depending on the environment.

3770k will still run arma just fine.  Yes it’s outdated but it was a great chip in its day, 2012-ish.

Honestly your frames aren't going to be awful. Your minimum frames are going to be lower than someone with an 7700k obviously, but your average frames wont be in the dumpster either. 3770k has okay single threaded performance even today, just make sure Arma is on an SSD and you should be fine. Your GPU is largely irrelevant when it comes to Arma so you're fine there too.

Expect 30-40 fps in Kavala with dips into the 20s. This unfortunately is pretty normal, with better hardware you can keep your minimum frames higher. Keep your graphical settings as high as possible and play around with them a little, might want to check out a few guides for optimising but basically the higher your settings the more is offloaded from your CPU to your GPU.

Just don't expect to be streaming, chilling on discord with a dozen tabs open in chrome while playing at decent frames.

Right now I get around, 60-80 frames  except kavala.
