    30 sec of complaints:

    I bought a new rig for each Arma and since OFP.

    This time I was like "this new BIS game looks devastating, I'm gonna save more money and buy a BEAST, capable of sending stuff in space"

    "So what's the best money can buy ? I7 + GTX 295 ? Let's go for that !"

    Oh well...

    1 min request:

    It is obvious that BIS devellopers are aware of issues encountered with our high end PC's, but has anyone of them already talked about it, on this forum or somewhere else ?

    It would be VERY (!) nice if they expressed their opinion on this subject; because for now I got the unpleasant feelings that we're just a bunch of desesperated fanboy's, doing no matter what to solve problems that may remain.

    Please BIS, just a word to tell us, that a great part of your customers are not just forsaken.

    *sorry for the bad english*

    That's very low FPS, same as me before a few tweaks.

    You should try:

    - rename Arma2.exe to Crysis.exe / add -winxp at the end of your Arma2 shortcut's target

    - disable Vsync and triple buffering in your nvidia drivers

    - install the no blur/bloom program http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=5851

    Massive FPS gain ! But still I find battles hard to play with medium/high settings, especially when using a sniper scope.

    Ive run both XP and 7 and after loads of testing ive stuck with XP, I had pretty much the same framerates but 7 gave me a lot of stutters when turning quickly, whereas XP is smoooooth as you like!

    I see what you're talking about, I also have those stutters. But they are only noticeable when looking 360° after the loading of the map.

    My prime motivation to change my windows is to have a playable and enjoyable game in battles without turning the rest of the game in a ugly + 200fps graphic desert.

    And also maybe, getting FPS that are related to the price I paid for my pc, but this is secondary ;)

    I'm currently running Arma II on this sweet rig:

    I7@3.2Ghz

    GTX 295

    6Gb ram

    Vista 64

    I did all the -winxp/no blur/crysis.exe tricks and gain a lot of fps, but still some players reports better perf on older system.

    From what I heard, XP makes Arma 2 runs much better than Vista, so I got a few questions:

    - can I have a solid confirmation that XP > Vista ?

    - If yes is there any chance for perf under Vista to be improved by a future patch ?

    - How about Seven ? I could consider upgrading, but I really don't want to go back to XP.

    - Finally: 32/64 bits, wich is the best ? I know Arma 2 doesn't exploite 64 bits system, but it would be a shame if it ran slower on them.

    Thanks for your answer and all apologies if this subject has already been discussed in a particular topic.

    Hello.

    Like most people here I think the mouse lag is ruinning the game.

    I saw that maybe, it was a "realism feature", but I can't believe it... As we know, mouselag is very related to framerate, but framerate in Arma is never constant.

    I could at least understand the concept of this so-called feature, if the lag effect was constant !

    But when you have to adapt to controls that varies from bad to barely playable (in comparison of modern FPS)...
