  1. Ryzen L1, L3 and memory performance is lower than Intels. However depending on how the processor is used currently it may be even worse because of the split L3 cache and if Windows move threads between the two core clusters resulting in data no longer being accessible in the correct L3 cache. I don't know if that's a problem for Arma 3 but if it's something which happen then simply stop moving threads between the clusters will have some positive performance impact at-least as far as memory access goes. It's basically NOT the most CPU intensive game. It's just one of the most demanding games in regard of core performance due to how it's been constructed. It's not CPU intensive. It's single core intensive :D

I haven't tried running Arma 3 on this Phenom X4 9850 @ 2.7 GHz. Is the G4560 a better Arma 3 CPU than the Ryzen 7 1700? Oh, you already had a test with it.. So basically on par. Oh well, it cost 1/5-1/6 as much. I kinda wonder whatever I should get G4560 instead and then just wait for a 6 core coffee lake main-stream processor if there is one released. I so wish I had bought the i7 5820K as I thought I should autumn-Christmas 2014 when the SEK was strong and the USD weak and there was $150 cashback on processor + motherboard .. Wouldn't had cost more than Ryzen 7 1700 + B350 motherboard today and given me 2-2.5 years of much better performance. Yeah, brought up to 3.9-4.1 GHz the difference can't be all that much. The problem is of course that the i7 7700K can be brought up to 5+ GHz and have a higher IPC.
  3. What's sad the the BI engine which mostly just use one thread in this case. Sure the performance of each individual core could be better but Arma 3 is a bad benchmark of a multi-core processor but of course the best benchmark for Arma 3 performance. 27 FPS is terrible. I have the old Arma bundle and they had the new one which if one don't count the old Arma 1 and Arma 2 is just a bit cheaper than Arma 3 on Steam at best price but then again the Steam bundle with Apex edition offer yet more discount so the new Arma bundle doesn't seem worth it for something like me who already have the old ones and don't need / have much value of more Arma 2. However I haven't bought Arma 3 because all expansions aren't released yet and I assume it will be cheapest with everything together (but will I even enjoy it?) But with a performance of 27 FPS .. Is it even worth bothering with no matter how much content and at what price? Since they unlikely will change the engine and just release the next Arma instead maybe Arma 3 is a no-go for me regardless? It's sad. I've heard about the low performance before but I didn't knew it was because the game didn't took much advantage of modern processors.
