I've read various posts on frame rate increases and tweaks but i seem to have come up against a brick wall. I can play with all the video settings at Normal and obtain 60FPS, on High i can sustain 50-55 and in Very High (AA 8) i get 35-40FPS. (Obviously terrain dependant etc though i designed a map with 100+ guys storming a beach in RHIB's with a force of 30 defending whilst two aircraft bomb the hell out of the beach). Now if i play at Low, i still max out at 60FPS now presumably this is becaus the cheapy monitor i have only has a 60Hz refresh at max (native) resolution of 1440x900. Can anyone confirm this theory and also if i remortgage :p and buy a 120Hz monitor (say the Samsung SM2233RZ) can i expect a better frame rate? I know there are other variables that also affect this - having read the post that is 40 pages long :rolleyes:. So if i ask the bank manager for a loan as well as a remortgage i could buy a solid state drive and install ArmA 2 to that and that alone.
These two upgrades may provide an increase in framerates but my question is will they? :386:
Just a minor annoyance but i have v1.07.71750 so why does it still tell me v1.07 is available for download :mad: And why do i still see 'shearing' on some menu screens?
Most likely irrelevant but this is without any OC - which would be my next step, Oh and yes my system is;
