Hello all,
I am re-opening this thread, because since the last update (12/01/2015), I have some troubles with fps drop.
First of all, here's my config :
- GTX980M 4GB
- i7-4710HQ @2.5GHz Turbo @3.5GHz
- 16GB (2x8) DDR3 @1600MHz
- SSD 256 GB
So, I think it's a good enough hardware to play ArmA III... In fact, I was playing until 12/01/2015 with all settings set to Ultra or Very High (post-processing and general settings), and got an average of 50 fps, max 80 fps, min 30 fps. But since 2 days, when there's a heavy bombing raid of a Tigris or Cheetah, I got FPS drop from 50 to 1-3 fps.
I did some benchmarks with 3DMark 11 : got a total score average of 11000 (pretty good for a laptop, close to a desktop GTX 970 build with 12000). I know that in comparison with the GPU, my CPU is the "weak link" but I really think it is good enough, above all I did not have these troubles before.
So I never had such problems before, and now the game is totally unplayable. Obviously the sound is very shitty while this issue.
I think (but I'm not sure) this is because of the last update which integrated more physics effect and my GPU does not use accelerated Nvidia Physix to releive the CPU, but I'm not sure ^^.
I will be glad to get some help from community, and/or feedback about people having same troubles !
Best regards,
WhyT
