Garfield2010 10 Posted September 8, 2010 After much dicussion and research....... this is what I will have by the end of today):- i7 860 2.8Ghz 2.5GT processor 8 Gig DDR3 1.333 Ram Windows 7 2 (crossfire) x 4890 ATI DDR5 (1 Gig) Radeon Cards P7P55D Pro Motherboard 1 Screen 1 x special edition ARMA 2 Keybord & ARMA 2 Mouse with iron sights Do you think that this will do? Toms Hardware said no bottleneck will occur. Tom's guys also suggested that I overclock my CPU. I notced in ARMA 2 that there is a massive difference in setting being on very high and only high. THe distance is very blurry only on high and much more clear on very high. Last question:- How do I turn of grass? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garfield2010 10 Posted September 8, 2010 Cool. I want to turn grass of because I cannot see through it when prone. Will this now influence the detail of the trees etc as well??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted September 8, 2010 No, grass belongs to terrain while trees are objects. So object details would have effect on trees. Although i understand your point, i suggest you get familiar with grass turned on or you will encounter problems when joining a server which doesn't allow turning grass off. No offence, just an advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garfield2010 10 Posted September 8, 2010 Point taken.... Unfortunately I live in Africa so there is no such thing as servers for MP.. It is just me against the bloody AI who can spot me through grass in any case.... ---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ---------- So basically what that link tells me is that my RIG is crap for ARMA II.......... Great...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankbuster 1747 Posted September 8, 2010 No, it's not crap for Arma 2 at al. It's good, but almost no one can run everything at super high with a meeloyon view distance. Anything over 7k is wasted anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
