    how the hell do you manage with your comp to play in high @ 1920.

    I can barrely play in 1680 on high with my comp (with decent FPS during big battle I mean)

    And I do have 7 too

    I've got better graphic card with switch button for hardware O/C which is enabled all the time :)

    @3.2GHz on each core, as far I know there is no support for quad cores in ArmA1, so my processor is better then yours.

    Also I've got one of the best mobos for X2 64

    This should make difference.

    Did you update your drivers for ATI, there are beta drivers for W7.

    Someone said Win7 boosted ARMA1's performance quite a lot (i think it was placebo) so it will probably be the same in ARMA2 as they basically use the same engine.

    That's true, I can play with high settings and 1920 x 1200 on Windows7 with patch 1.16 beta. whilst with patch 1.14 it's not possible.

    Check my x-fire profile, you will find there list of my hardware.

    I mean why do we need more "maps" out of box? We have one big island. I understand where community made one's will be fun later down the road. But I never played any other maps until Avnagi and Afgan maps where made for Arma 1. So maybe I'm missing something here. But why do we need more maps when we have a huge island?

    OMG! :eek:

    Each of us is different and each of us has different needs.

    I need more maps, more addons, more funny stuff... everything.

    Queens Gambit had nice campaign with mercenaries, It was very cool gameplay and addictive scenario. Hope they will give us something similar.

    Also I expect that in additional thing there will be no US army or Russian Forces (or derivative), but completely different nation or nations. Placebo is from Sweden, also I was there and they have very beautiful country (just beer is week and bad, taste like cats piddle), so let's make a WAR there :P

    We have the same graphics card, Sapphire I assume? My CPU is only the AMD 63 X2 4600+ Last night I was running around Chernarus in the editor with graphic settings on "very high" @ 1680x1050 as that's my monitor's max resolution.

    Hey Placebo, thanks for your quick replay.

    We've got a little bit different graphic card, my is PALIT Sonic Edition... it has extra switch which allows you to hardware overclock you card 'on the fly'.

    This is what I've got on my desk:

    Actually I can play in ArmA with 1920 x 1200 textures NORMAL, rest on HIGH. Even with ACE mod during DOMINATION with almost full server I've got smooth play with 23~60fps, usually 28~35fps.

    So either I buy second card or new processor, it'll depends how arma2 will run during session in warfare.

    And before anyone asks again yes ArmA2 works great with Win7 RC1 64 as that's what I'm using (with 6gb ram if that's relevant) + ATI 4870 :)

    :rolleyes:

    Could you give me more specific info about your rig, please?

    I'm actually owner of 4870 (512) and processor X2 64 6400 (@3.2), which I want change to Phenom II 940 (3.0).

    I'm wondering if it'll be possible to play ArmA2 on my big monitor 26" with resolution 1920 x 1200 and quite high detail, of course I expect quite good frame rate, which is for me not less then 23fps.

    Looking forward to hear from you, Placebo.
