hyzoran 17 Posted May 15, 2013 Am I imagining things, or has performance greatly improved since the last 2 developer patches? (before I achieved 25 fps on 1500 obj render distance, and 4000 terrain distance, now I get 35 at 3000 obj distance and 6000 terrain distance, running exactly the same settings otherwise) If so, THANK YOU BIS :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NicotinKickballovich 1 Posted May 15, 2013 Good to see someone having one of those old dinosaurs as I do. Got a Q6600 myself and ArmA performs great. 30-45fps. You should overclock though, because these old quad chips are pretty good at that, think you wouldn't even need to raise your voltage to get 3.0-3.2Ghz at least and that will definitely give a boost.

Nice! That was my old old chip going back almost 5 years. The fact that you can run modern games with it is pretty impressive. Hell, when I 'upgraded' to a Phenom II x6 1100T (overclocked to 4Ghz) I felt like it wasn't even an upgrade at all. Intel just dominates hardcore lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisb 196 Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) I have four fps check area’s, each of these are with one unit placed in the editor: This is a variety of dev builds, plus the standard Alpha, results: (same time of day etc) Airfield Inland Town Lighthouse (NW) I have also tested with different amounts of ai on the map with a couple of WP’s each, away from the player unit. These are pretty good as well, link here. I check each of these places on each dev build and they all have increased, so its all going in the right direction. Not for everyone I know, but its per system it seems and not system type.. This is all on my A2 pc (sig)..;) Edited May 15, 2013 by ChrisB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intel just dominates hardcore lol the phenom II is still a briliant chip for multi use though. not so great for current gen for games, but they where damm good for AUTOCAD and SOLIDWORKS at that price, otherwise you needed a xenon or somehting starting at 1000NZD (that gen hyperthreading left things wanting) OT:i'm also noticing a bit of a imporvement in smothness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyzoran 17 Posted May 15, 2013 I would love to overclock but I have an oem pc (hp) and setfsb doesnt support my pll chip (cv193dpag) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted May 15, 2013 Glad your performance incresed but we already have threads covering performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
