Barbecue Tech Tips 0 Posted March 20, 2017 I have been tweaking the parameters since the 64bit launched with slight Gaines. What settings yield the best performance ? Setup: 6700k@4.7Ghz stable. Was running 4.9Ghz for testing. 2x8gb 4266Mhz ram Rx 480 @1400Mhz Samsung evo ssd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midnighters 152 Posted March 20, 2017 The most optimal? It's really different for each system, depending on what your system is lacking it could swing one way or the other. Since you have at least 8gb of memory. I'm not too worried with the new 64 bit. your g p u could be lacking power for things like anti aliasing or texture quality. It quite most literally is different for each and every system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAZER cortex doesn't prioritise, it just shuts down programs freeing up RAM and less use of the CPU which always gives a little boost to Arma 3 for me mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is, I've seen blokes with more or less the same specs as mine, with 20-30% better FPS, and they're running with higher graphics settings too, it's horses for courses when it comes to asking what gives the best performance really.

Basically, yeah. My SSD, My 6770k, and 16 GB of DD4 still get bottlenecked from my 960. Though some are running even older cards with higher fps and have cranked out their texture quality, antialiasing, AO. Etc. I think there is a true difference between each scenario though. You can never really pin point which mission details a true benchmark for area 3. I don't really think YAAB does it either. Because it's not a real world scenario.

road runner 4344 Posted March 20, 2017 There is a known issue with the 960/970's when it comes to allocating the RAM apparently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maquez 141 Posted March 21, 2017 there is absolute NO NEED to tweak there anything ! arma3 do set this parameters if you leave them default correct for your hardware. apart of: -nosplash -enableHT -hugePages -noLogs you should not use any other parameters ! other parameters should only be used to configure some special or uncommon hardware, like 12 core CPU or a GTX 970 where you need to limit the VRAM due stupid memory handling of GPU. if you really need to get the most out of your CPU and hardware then download this: process lasso this is the only software I can really advice, all other software like razer or any other performance boost "fake" software are garbage !

Barbecue Tech Tips 0 Posted March 21, 2017 I agree with the software promising a performance boost being a waste. With my specs I'm bottlenecked by the RX 480. There are benchmarks available for download o Via steam workshop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
