Performance problems not GPU related? But what else could be the problem?

Can't try it now but i've found another post that supports the CPU-Problem/AI-Bug Idea: http://forums.bistudio.com/showpost.php?p=1362028&postcount=7 -

Already tried to disable hyperthreading. No result. ---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:10 AM ---------- Isn't that what the "visual range" setting is for? The gpu shouldn't calculate things that are 20km away. Does someone know a way how to load the "Chernarus" map completly without NPCs? Probably a empty multiplayer game? -
Hi, i have big performance problems in singleplayer mode. I first though it has something to do with my graphic card and tried out tons of drivers and settings. But whatever i do i only get about 20-35 FPS with Landscape on very low, objects on normal, post processing off, Shadows high(all other settings didn't change the fps). I've tried a few things out and found the "Waffenkammer"-Mode. Don't know the english name. Probably "Weapon Test" or something like this. It's a sub-menu from "Single Player". However, it's very interesting because you can clearly see that the performance problems are probably not based on the graphic card. When i play a normal singleplayer game i have about 20-30 FPS(with described quality settings) in the woods with only my teammates around. If i play this "weapon test"-mode i have even in combat with 4-5 Enemies 50 fps with everything maxed out. AA, Shadow, Objects, Landscape, Textures, Post Processing ... everything "very high" = 50 FPS. If i tone it down a bit i easily get more than 100 FPS. I've tried a few things out(with the described quality settings) to compare the results: Test 1 "Staying alone in a wood": Singleplayer(SP): 25-30 FPS Unstable(sometimes studdering) Weapon Test(WT): 45-50 FPS Stable Test 2 "Staying alone in a empty city": SP: 25-30 FPS WT: 45-50 FPS. Test 3 "Looking in the Sky" SP: 30-35 FPS WT: 140 FPS. So i would say the low FPS in singleplayer has nothing to do with the graphic card. It seems to be a problem with another computer component. I see two possible sources: 1. The AI. There're tons of NPCs around in SP. That would mean that the low FPS on my machine is based on the CPU. Probably we have a problem with socket LGA1366 based processors like the core i920 i have. 2. Much more Sound Sources in SP. It's not the first time that i have performance problems in cause of the SB-X-Fi. Any ideas what settings i could try to encircle the problem? Probably a command line option to change or disable the sound? Or a setting to reduce the cpu-load of the AI in some way?

I've tried all this tips and tricks but nothing helped for me Tried... -various drivers, from 185-190. -some command line options (-winxp, -cpucount=8...) -Different CFG Settings (FSAA, HDR Precision, Scene complexity) -All grapics quality settings from low to high, visual range from low to high -different nHancer Settings(VSync, FSAA Transparency, SLI compatibility ...) -with and without SLI -Hypertreading activated/disabled and so on... I cant get the fps over 20-30. Even SLI off/on give me only about 3 more fps. Post Processing off about 1-2. Object Details off 1-2, Landscape Detail 1, all the other settings change nearly nothing. If SLI is enabled it shows that both GPUs load is at about 30-50%. Any ideas? :/ This is my rig: Core i920 @ 3Ghz 6 GB DDR3 1600 Ram Nvidia Geforce GTX 295 Asus Rampage 2 Extreme SB X-Fi 2 HDDs in Raid 0 Vista 64
