View distance really only matters while flying. I usually set mine to about 3000. Most online servers have a default value anyway, which you can override (middle mouse, view status, settings). It's usually around 1500-2400.

Amazed, You should be fine on "Very High" on everything. Your campaign will most likely drop to low FPS (20-40) on any setting anyway. (refer to my above posts) Multiplayer you will max out at the cap limit of 60.

Janat, Thanks for your reply. My GPU is at stock frequencies. I have only over clocked my CPU (for testing with ARMA) I have discovered that everything set to "Very High", except Post Processing which is disabled (personal preference) on Multiplayer gives me a steady 55-60 FPS with a 3000km distance. I am putting the terrible frame rate in Campaign to unoptimized coding. Maybe due to the amount of AI that is being loaded.

Hey all, I'm having a few issues getting a decent frame rate. I get a maximum of 40FPS. That is on Very Low. Very High gets me 25-30FPS. I overclocked my i7 920 from 2.67GHz to 3.4GHz which barely made a difference. My specs are: Intel Core i7 920 @ 3.4GHz ATi HIS HD5870 6GB DDR3 @ 1600MHz Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit. A friend with near identical specs (4870 instead of 5870) runs at a constant 50 FPS. Any insight or fixes for this? Thanks in advance.
