Blechreiz 0 Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) Hi folks! Today I read on pcgameshardware.de that Phenom2 has big FPS disadvantages to other (Intel) CPUs. They tested 18 CPUs and came to the result that AMD CPUs have disadvantages due to programing / incompatible problems. I hope I may link the graphic (49KB): (Please note: The shown Phenom2 x4 955 in this test is overclocked!) http://www.pcgameshardware.de/aid,687567/ArmA-2-im-Test-Benchmark-mit-18-CPUs/Rennspiel-Sportspiel-Simulation/Test/ <<---- Here is the full test. Its only in german but I hope everybody understands this graphic. Pcgameshardware is a very professional page with a big magazine (pcgames / pcgameshardware). Iam realy confused because I read that AMD and especial AMD / ATI will be much better supported in ArmA2. Iam using the latest Phenom2 (x4 955) and the ATI 4890. Overall my performance is ok, but I guess this test is not lying! Edited June 18, 2009 by Blechreiz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thr0tt 12 Posted June 18, 2009 The review is also in English and I can confirm that it doesn't run that great on my AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE which is at stock (3.2GHZ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziiip 1 Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) I get around 20-25 FPS in Evo and CTI and any bigger-than-small missions. :( And it barely changes with the lower settings. Edit: not that the other CPUs are so shining Edited June 18, 2009 by ziiip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
