from the lobby the server reads ~47 fps

I'm the only one on the server ;-(, It is a new install of windows, so the defrag won't be an issue. Seems odd that the specs BIS mentions doesn't seem to be 100% correct...... I'll check what fps I get in the lobby The odd thing is that the first server I tried (another mini-PC) was 1.4Ghz + 512Meg of mem, and it was having the same issues, so I figured that if I moved to a faster CPU it would solve the issue, that is where mini-PC #2 came into the pic. Are you sure the gfx card does not play into this at all?, its the one thing that is common between the two mini-PC's they both have the basic chipset gfxs

so what is needed to bing it up?, the min specs from BIS are what I have, do I suffer from not enough memory or not enought CPU speed?

fps mem used out in 1 400 16 169 when running "normally" I get 2-3 400 ~36 ~49

No, its a full P4, the server connection uplink should not matter in my case, I see this happening when I and only I connect from my lan, (the server is 40ft away). I have a 100Mbit connection to the server. Does a gfx card play a roll at all?, the mini-book PC has a crappy intel gfx chipset, fine for surfing the web. I know this might sounds like an odd question, but I have run into this before using a usb camera for image recognition, and in those cases the gfx card (or lack there of) does play a roll. Does the Arma server use the gfx card for calculations of terrain etc?, and could this be my issue?

I have been playing for a while now (since the german release) and I mainly play coop, PvP just doesn't seem to do it for me, much prefer JOPS for PvP, anyways. One thing I would like to see in an add on, is the ability to cut /destroy the power lines to a city and have it go dark, is there such an addon/mission? Also air to air combat seems to be non-existent, I have not found any maps that use this, which is a shame, we have the "room" to try this

I know its not a flight sim, its a combat sim, but isn't air to air a form of combat? "combat" is not restricted to infantry correct?, it would be nice to have "full scale" type battles, wishful thinking I know... either way, I'm not too keen on air to air, but its nice to have options to play.
