SUPER low FPS - 5-10!!!!

Recommended Posts

Hey all, first post here.

I just downloaded Arma 2 pack specifically for the awesome DayZ mod and I am running into major FPS issues. Its so choppy sometimes I can even run...so I die...ALOT! :(

My PC is pretty old I know but the specs say I should be fine but I am not sure how I can troubleshoot what part of my PC is the issue.

Gateway 5224

Processor Intel Pentium D 915 / 2.8 GHz

Memory 3326 RAM

Hard Drive 250.0 GB - 7200.0 rpm

Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

Geforece 9500 GT 1GB

Direct x9.0c

Now I THINK I have a bad memory stick as it was 4MB(2x2MB sticks) so I assume thats the issue.

But I really dont want to spend $100 upgrading my RAM just to find out the rest of the machine is still a problem when I can get a new machine for $500-600.

Suggestions on how I can test the performance to make sure the problem is ram?

No, you're not. Min system requirements say a Dualcore with at least 3GHz and a Geforce 7800. Your CPU and GPU are weaker than that.
