Will my PC Run this? What CPU/GPU to get? What settings? System Specifications.

[Azamato 0]

anyone with a Pentium 4 can tell me how he plays it?

Not well. I'm pretty sure the minimum requirement is dual-core.

However, the single GPU is still extremely fast and the second is there IF need be.

Unless you have a 30" monitor, you are more than likely not going to need that extra power. There's the argument that it provides extra future-proofing, but to be honest, you're better off getting one single-GPU card now and another one in 18 months time. Works out as a better deal in the long run.

if i play with a lower res , id expect better fps right? say at 1024x768 or 1280x1024? i have a 17inch monitor and most games only look good at 1024x768..

Pentium 4 twin threaded 3.4ghz with an AGP based ATI Radeon X1650 pro 512 mb card will run it at lowest settings on 1200 by 800 at 16:10 ratio. but you will want to upgrade.

Ok heres the stats:

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+, MMX, 3DNow (2 CPUs), ~2.1GHz

Memory: 3582MB RAM DDR2 800Mhz

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT (slightly overclocked, special boxed BFG edition)

Operating System: Windows XP

Motherboard:GeForce6100SM-M

Hi again. Been changing a few things to hopefully get the best I can from ARMA2 with my crappy cpu etc...

For the first time ever I did some overclocking, got my cpu to 2.35GHZ from 2.1GHZ. I can't go any further as my mobo is awful for overclocking, I cant change voltage to get the frequency to run higher. Nor the multiplier.

Also i increased my DRAM frequency from 200MHZ to 400MHZ. Also bought a 2006 SATA 500GB hard drive to replace my 2001 80GB ATA one...

Did a performance test in CoH (hard drive not installed yet) and with everything on max my FPS went from an average of 30 to 40. SO am quite happy with that.

Anyway the reason am posting here is to see if you think this will make a difference to playing ARMA2. Am hoping i will gain at least a increase in my FPS by a bit but am no expert so what do you think? Also when I get ARMA2 my hard drive will be installed and i shall have ARMA2 on it.

P4 with HT 3.0ghz but with a 9600GT ? :D

note that I play GTA IV on 15 fps so i can survive anyuthing

[XrProdigy98 10]

I got

Vista

Quad Core q9450 2.66Ghz

3 Gigs of Ram

Nvidia GTX 260 896Mb

If i were to upgrade to

4 Gigs of 1088Mhz ( I think it is) DDR2

and get another GTX 260 and sli them how would i run

tell me on both how would i run

TY

^ dont upgrade youre good to go now

[XrProdigy98 10]

what do you think i can run on high and med

i mean i might upgrade the ram at least

but what would i be able to run on

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:18 PM ----------

I mean the recommend a quad core i just wanna make sure my Quad core 2.66 and my GTX 260 896mb is good enough and 3 gigs of ram

Your fine. Your RAM is fine, your video card is fine, your CPU is fine.

If there was a bottleneck it might be the CPU as it's not THAT fast. I have a Q6600 2,4 Ghz and experiencing hicups in urban area with many AI... but when in the editor, I can have all on high with only a 8800GTX.

I believe a 3ghz dual core performs better than a 2,4Ghz quadcore most of the time.

[XrProdigy98 10]

oh so with many ai..i mean if i play online and use map editor and stuff ill be fine.

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

i have 2 gfx cards should i use my 8800 gtx or use my GTX260

You may just get away with it but I can assure you you will want to upgrade. lol

Asking again:

Someone knows what are the specs to run a server for 30-50 ppl?

Im trying to find out this info for weeks...

[XrProdigy98 10]

I found out i support more on computer..

Vista 64

So if i had Quad Core 2.66

8 gb ram 800 DDR2 but if i stayed at 4 gigs or even 4 what u think

GTX 260 nvidia 896mb

i mean idc if i have to play objects at med or high and same with terrain

8gigs of ram or 4 doesnt mattet that much

you're good to go on high

[XrProdigy98 10]

thanks man

when does it come to the US i heard the 19th

[echo1 0]

8GB is meant to cause problems with ArmA2, so I'd definitely stick with 4.

[XrProdigy98 10]

ch but otherwise what you think about my rig i mean is it good

i have the same question too, i have a AMD athlon x2 Dual core 64 @ 1.99 GHZ (2.00) 2 GB of ram but i have this this card, which i think is a little beter than the 8500 GT, and its the EXACT card http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=270400076613 what does everyone think ?

probably mostly low , some med but you need to switch your OS to xp 32bit, and upgrade your cpu to a better dual core , and gfx card. to get at least med-high

does that go for me to ? i mean my graphics card is way beter than what the other guy has, he has more ram but recommended system requirements are 2 gig, 1 gig Min, we pretty much have teh same system tho.

Comes out the 29th.

That's a good system, can you overclock your CPU for even more speed! I have my i7 920 @ 3.6Ghz.
