What computing system do you have for the Arma 3 Beta?

[avfc 10]

Running the pc i talked about building last summer on these forums somewhere.

Asrock Extreme 4

I5 3570k

8gb Ripjaws

Evga 660ti

The only thing i plan to do is get an SSD as right now i have a standard 500gb HDD. No problems with the alpha maxed out so far seems to run a dream, i only have the lite though so it would be interesting to see what its like in a full on war.

wow. i see my computer is so bad than that one you requiring

[dragonfire43560 27]

just ordered a new CPU.

How will this game run on

i5 3570k

4 gigs ram

Geforce 465 GTX 1 gig

Im worried about my graphics card, but now i got a beastly processor. (used to have phenom 2 945)

Do you guys think my graphics card will cut it? Ideally id like to run on high smoothly

If it had been coded more efficiently, yes. As it isn't, then, no. I doubt your rig will run it smoothly. Unless you set the standard of 'smooth' as others do in these forums, ie load up a blank map, put one soldier down and run for 1 second and say 'yeh, that's smooth'.. Coz that's about as scientific as you need be and from there you will enjoy the fact your rig is perfectly adequate. Just don't put over 40 same old stupid AI down in the editor. This way you'll be able to run around at 60FPS with enough eye candy and nothing going on, outside your mind and in, for you to just enjoy it enough. Again, don't put anything in the editor that will try and use your processor, it's risking despondency.

Just pushed the Alpha lite to my second machine (first machine in spioler below)

Q9650, 8gig ram, and a GTX 285, and can get quite playable frames (steady 30+) @ 2.5k view distance, res 1600x 1060, on mechanical drives. Have to sacrifice a good chunk of bling but it still looks playable.

[MaxiM_PL 1]

Done and Done. Hope this sirvey will help BI determine what they can/should aim for.

[bonko the sane 2]

Done, and now im depressed and really need a new PC, with my Q6600 oc@3.0 Ghz and a GTX260 and all settings minimum FPS is barely playable. Sure engine will be optimized, but that wont do it, islands will be much bigger etc etc :\

[WonderWaffles 1]

I got an old 560 Ti and an i5 3550 3.3 GHz. How will I do?

Am looking to upgrade to a 660 Ti and wondering how that will fare as well.

[dnk 13]

i5 3350P

GTS 250 1GB

2x2GB DDR2 (1066 I think)

7200RPM HDD (WD)

Get 30-40 FPS w/o AI on most of the map on medium-high settings (no AA), 1600x900, and 3500m viewdist. 10-20FPS with 100-150 AI in the city. I'm content with the performance, but plan an upgrade to a 9750 this summer, perhaps another 4GB with RAM so cheap.

[kwhy 10]

I'm still running the same rig that I put together for Arma 2 back in 2008 or 2009 but with a newer Video Card that I recently picked up (see below).

I'm slightly overclocked to 3.6 ghz with stock fan running High Settings running 1920x1080 on the Arma 3 Alpha.

I'm wondering if it is even worth jumping up to something like an AMD fx 8350 at 4.2ghz when my FPS might only increase 10fps (from around 30 to 40) on High or Even Ultra Settings...I'll wait and see what the summer brings chip wise from AMD (I'm an AMD guy for some reason).

I'm sure things will be better when the game is optimized more though.

AMD Phenom II X4 955 3.2GHz (3.6ghz oc)

Western Digitial Caviar Black 1TB Drive

Corsair TX 750 watts

[M. BlackBeard 26]

I've always preferred mobility to anything else...and some may find this strange but I'm still using my "old" Asus G73 Laptop for the Alpha and it's going quite well so far.

With an i7 Q 720 and an Ati 5870 1Gb, it's still rolling on high/standard settings at around 35/40 FPS - 1920x1080.

I'm considering a new Asus G75 for my next platform. (Hands up if you can play at work!)

I'm just a little bit better off than you are...

Q9550 oc'd to 3.4 Ghz

two GTX280s in SLI

The game actually runs much better than I predicted it would with this setup...

[ozzbik 71]

Current Rig:

AMD Athlon X4 640 (3.0 Ghz)

12 GB Memory

XFX 4850 625M 1GB

Still reviewing my options for upgrade Intel/AMD, Graphics AMD/Nvidia, Mobo, Memory etc.

Running game mostly on standard (No AA, FXAA Ultra, Post Processing Off) but I have Textures, Shadows set on high. FPS around 29-30 with drops to 20-24 when allot is happening onscreen (Multiple AI, Smoke etc).

[Megadave 1]

My 9800gt/Intel Core 2 Q6600/4gb ram setup runs the game fairly well, can get about 20 flying helicopters before getting below 20fps, but lags more on multiplayer. I'm hoping to get a 560 and an i7 920 along with at least 8 gigs of ram

[Dafydd 1]

Just pulled the trigger and got the Alpha! Just waiting on the download from steam and the anticipation is driving me crazy. Anyway, I built this rig recently and can't wait to see how this fairs. Thinking about grabbing a better HD or an SSD card. Really hope my current HD won't hold me back much. (specs in sig and filled out the form as well).

[nikiforos 450]

Dafydd your system will run the game medium-high settings without a problem.

And expect the game to get optimized, which will make things run even better :)
