jumpinghubert 49 Posted April 18, 2014 He's got an AMD Phenom II X6 1075T not a i5-2500K or 3570K... his CPU is absolutely definitely bottlenecking a 780. congratulations for reading carefully :D @windies thats wrong, ivy isn´t better to overclock than haswell and only sandy better than ivy & haswell because since ivy intel uses rubbishy thermal paste between heatspreader and core. I removed the heatspreader on my 3570k to be able to overclock it to 4.8. @ziffa welcome to the forum lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teilx 4 Posted April 19, 2014 Recommending people to spend money instead of telling BIS to optimize the game is the wrong path to go.1+yeah overclocking +lower lifespan and spend money for only one game .........only dump Please stop such advices :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpinghubert 49 Posted April 19, 2014 please be less ignorant teilx IF someone wants higher fps in arma3 what we will tell him? a) Impossible! Its the engine, you can´t get better fps. b)BECAUSE the engine isn´t optimized you have to compensate it with better cpu-power IF you want better fps in arma3. Answer a) is a little bit religious, answer b) more pragmatism. Its an individual descision how much it is worth to get better performance in arma3. With good cooling the lifespan argument is bullshit ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSD_Timewarp82 21 Posted April 19, 2014 Correct. Lifespan argument is really bullshit. My i7 runs since years with more voltage and this 4200Mhz. And a year ago my cpu runs with over 5000Mhz for a couple of months (cooled by Mach II GT then) and it still works... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honza1616 1 Posted April 19, 2014 (edited) I want to say that I use my PC for work where it is needed the most cores in the processor with the highest clocking and unfortunately processors from Intel, for example, do not meet the 4 cores with 3 Ghz .... now has a PC processor with 6 cores 3Ghz, by buying processors from Intel would reduce the performance of my PC I found one site where tested graphics Arma 3 used to test a range of processors from Intel and AMD, the tests used the same graphics card as I have and I was surprised by the performance of AMD FX-8350 compared with Intel I7-3770K fall was only about 5 FPS 1980x1080px settings Ultra, GTX 780 I7-3770K - 48 FPS FX-8350 -43 FPS In addition, this processor is compatible with my board So What's your view on FX-8350 processor, would be a better choice? web in my language, (in Czech) for the translation I have added a link from Google translate: D CPU test here.... GPU test here.... EDIT: Now I looked at the prices and think i over more powerful CPU to be AMD FX-Series X8 FX-9370 or AMD FX-Series FX-9590 X8 is a difference in performance GHz so should I have increase the FPS, is not it?

teilx 4 Posted April 19, 2014 cooling the lifespan argument is bullshityeahh all pro's.lol.. overheating is only a bad sideeffect and there are much more reasons for decreasing cpu performance by OCafter years. lose warranty and stock specifications are indeed baseless xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sneakson 1 Posted April 20, 2014 yeahh all pro's.lol.. overheating is only a bad sideeffect and there are much more reasons for decreasing cpu performance by OCafter years. lose warranty and stock specifications are indeed baseless xD Chance of overheating is minimal. Unless you overheat you still have warranty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FX-9xxx series are just overclocked 8350 but they also require watercooling. Not worth it. Amount of cores don't matter in Arma 3. IPC matters, instructions per cycle, which Intel is King of.

Even if you only play the ARMA-Series, then you have still to upgrade from time to time. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziffa 11 Posted April 22, 2014 i have found the fix of low fps problem, 1)go in steam 2)right click on arma 3 icon 3)click on "delete local file" 4)install arma 2 5)enjoy P.S the engine of arma 3 can't be fixed or the developer team have a fat ass and don't like to work,just like the other shitty company that i forget the name...act...acti...oh right!Activision So don't spent your time to try fix this problem,you can't,just..play another game that WORK,because arma 3 don't work,and that's the most important point of a game,immagine a car game without car!awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumpinghubert 49 Posted April 22, 2014 I´ve heard disabling aero in win7 helps a lot (from 20fps to 70) :D....a little joke.....but maybe 5%? I´ve xp-theme from the beginning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Furret 0 Posted April 23, 2014 Semi-related is this article: http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/post/83623167155/experimental-branch-saw-many-changes-in-0-44 The part of note is this line: Work has commenced on disconnecting the renderer directly from the simulation. This would then free us to change (or even replace) the renderer much easier, allowing greater optimization and new functionality such as better particle effects. We have no timeframe for this completion no any specific goals beyond preparing it for future goals, but it’s exciting for us to start this work.This work will offer us the potential for future very significant client FPS optimizations, such as better scene management, to solve issues people experience such as low FPS in cities. Seeing as this is an engine issue I do hope information gained from the dayz team is shared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MavericK96 0 Posted April 23, 2014 ^^ That is the kind of thing that the ArmA 3 team really needs to be putting time into. Hell, it should have been done in Alpha TBH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k0rd 3 Posted April 23, 2014 ^^ That is the kind of thing that the ArmA 3 team really needs to be putting time into. Hell, it should have been done in Alpha TBH. I agree. I don't want to take anything away from the arma 3 team - but when I look at what vbs3 and dayz groups are talking about, it really feels like they have more of a focus on improving the underlying tech (not necessarily just patching up areas where the uglyness shines through like arma 3) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
