Specs: Asus P5N-E SLI BFGTECH GTX 295 Intel Q6600 6 GB RAM Windows 7 64-bit Newest forceware release on the GPU, and ARMAII updated to 1.05. Kinda just want to know how my performance is measuring up to other people. Just completed Operation Red, and I was having heavy stuttering on many sections even with anti-aliasing turned off and most all of my settings on normal, with a view distance of only 1000. I get about 24-30 on benchmark 1 with these settings, but actually playing the game seems to cause it to dip drastically. I've tried many of the shortcut edits like -winxp among others with little to no benefit, and have tried turning off physX, forcing alternate frame rendering 2, max pre-rendered frames to 8. I checked in the NVidia card topic and read something about altering 'Renderframesahead' but I'm not quite sure what that refers to in the .cfg file. I have two entries with similar names that have a value of 1000 and 3 respectively, for what that's worth. Aside from that, I haven't played too heavily with the config file, so if I'm missing something I'd like to know. Anyways, regardless. My rig has been completely murdering borderlands, MW2, Operation Flashpoint despite maxing settings but it it positively crawling and stuttering on ARMAII. I'm wondering if I might not be heavily bottlenecked by that Q6600 and require an upgrade too, and I realize that this game is extremely intense, but I don't feel like my rig is even performing to the standard it should in ARMAII.
