roll back to 1.04

ARMA eats PC's, Â even the very best machines can only run it around meduim settings at high res with a fast stable FPS. Yes the box should have said unless you own a very fast PC this game may suck. Â Be intresting to see how honest the Crysis box is? note ARMA is a nice reminder that even the fastest PC's are not capable of everything. Â Try supreme Commander at high res as well ;} Set everything LOW, Â drop screen res DOWN, Â then the game will start to work fast. Â ARMA is way ahead of its time. You machine may run BF2 fine etc, Â ARMA is like runnign 2 copies of BF2 at the same time. Either OC your machine, Â fine tune it or upgrade it. Â In the mean time drop GFx settings and even screen res and you can have fun. Â Cuirrently the machine that runs ARMA at HIGH res with 8xaa and 2000+ res at 100 FPS is in the RND labs in Silicon valley. Notes the sexy Dsy' video is produce without AA with many setting not close to very high. Â And thats look fab. i would beg to differ I can play ArmA fine on my system as long as i use 1.04 with all settings cranked up and not noticable slow down. ( Only time is when I bring up the scope can take 2 whole seconds for it to work). You have to make sure you are using the most stable driver version for your PC. I use Vista Home Prem Tagan 700w Duel Engine SLI ready. 3 gig OCZ PC6400 800mhz 4-4-4-15 Q6700 Extreme 2 x 8800 GTX in SLI. P5N-E SLI Mobo 3070 Bios 22" Samsung Widescreen TFT. I am not tried the beta driver but plan on it over the weekend.

a 700w Tagan Duel Engine SLI Ready will run a pair of 8800 GTX's this is what I use on my Rig.

Well i dont think it is a Vista Problem I am Running Vista Home Prem and running Duel 8800 GTX's and my Armed A runs fine on Patch 1.4 with everything maxed out the only time I get any issues is when I patch 1.5 and like everyone else the graphics are then screwed. Yes the guys should have researched more but dont jump down his throat blaming Vista or 8800s there is great drivers for 8800 on XP it is only the sli support that is a bit dodgy but with the 100.65 Driver it is supported and the 101.45 there are enabling better DX support on silgle systems but DX 10 wont come until a later patch.
