burdy 11 Posted January 27, 2011 Its really annoying for me that im running a intel i5 760 quad core 2.8ghz, 6 gigs of ram, and a GTX 470 and missions like RUBE Fire Ant which have a decent amount of ai, it becomes a lag fest with 20 FPS (looks like a slideshow to me) and when i press escape I go up to 70 FPS... Isnt a i5 good enough for this game?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posta 10 Posted January 28, 2011 Haven't tried "RUBE Fire Ant" but AI eats CPU like a hungry horse after a diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xmongx 0 Posted January 28, 2011 (edited) I play that RUBE fire ants mission without issue on an E6850@3.3 and an HD6850, the mission doesnt seem that intensive really. EDIT mind you, 'without issue' for me might not be the same as 'without issue' for you. Ive played OFP/ARMA/ARMA2 for years and with some very shit hardware at some points.

johncage 30 Posted January 28, 2011 the i5/i7 series is notorious for producing unstable performance. that is, fps can vary so greatly that it feels like a slide show. one moment 100 fps, the next moment 20. use vsync to remedy this, but it does have a side effect of making the game sluggish.

gossamersolid 155 Posted January 28, 2011 AI in this game will decrease performance no matter what setup you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dale0404 5 Posted January 30, 2011 Ok something wrong here... I have an I5 750 and 460GTX GPU, also 4GB of RAM and my settings in game are: Everything on the highest setting apart from AA on normal, pp very low. View distance is 5000m and 3D res is 100%. Screen resolution is 1920x1080. HDR quality is set to normal. I vary from 25fps up to 53 fps on that very same mission (RUBE fire ants). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziiip 1 Posted January 30, 2011 AI in this game will decrease performance no matter what setup you have. Take this line seriously. On top of that, I have a friend with an i7 920 and 5850 and he has ~25 FPS in PVP with 60 ppl, just like me with a much weaker rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
