  1. LOL thnx for making me laugh :) I might have to fire up A3 to see what you guys are talking about :)
  2. Same here , I stopped playing about a month ago, got tired of the crashes and 15 FPS , plus I would like to see more content :)
  3. I think this is what you are looking for Texas MulticoreTechnologies’ SequenceL Auto-parallelizing Programming Solution http://www.amd.com/us/Documents/TMT_Whitepaper.pdf http://www.texasmulticoretechnologies.com/
  4. some one just posted a question about a Linux based server option and it got me thinking about all the little programs (and big ones) you find in the open source community and i started to wonder if there was a program for spreading a single thread over multiple cores...and thats how i came across this paper...interesting reading looks like it could be very useful for ARMA3 :) http://cseweb.ucsd.edu/users/tullsen/pldi10.pdf

    Arma 3 too heavy for your computer?

    we have the same chip and i don't think it is going away anytime soon as a powerful chip :) i am pretty sure i have another 2 years before i have to replace it :)...i hope :)
  6. we are on the same page :) even with the xfire 6670 medium for most games is all you can hope, as for the A3 being mainly a CPU issue i believe i have a solution :) if BIS will include one of these with every game i think the problem will be solved :D Koolance CPU-LN2 Rev2 Liquid Nitrogen Pot Review
  7. it never hurts to update your PC :) and given your specs it Definitely wont hurt :) . the "engine "has certain limitations that hardware cant over come at the moment :( but like i said a new PC wont hurt :)
  8. true, the APU's were never made for "gamers" but they do have a little power under the hood and with the proper video card can play modern games :) here is a review using a 6800k with the following specs they got it to play crysis 2 @1920x1080 with an AVG FPS of 54 :) like i said its NOT gamers CPU but it can hang in there with a proper discrete GPU :) http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/amd_a10_6800k_review_apu,18.html

    Arma 3 too heavy for your computer?

    here is the "minimum" requirements OS Windows Vista SP2 Windows 7 SP1 (Apple OS not supported) PROCESSOR Intel Dual-Core 2.4 GHz AMD Dual-Core Athlon 2.5 GHz GRAPHICS NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT ATI Radeon HD 3830 Intel HD Graphics 4000 GPU MEMORY 512 MB so i guess anything above this would be considered "medium" :o
  10. I wasn't trying to imply they use "open source" software its just what inspired me to search in the first place :) it would be interesting to hear from the devs if what is written in the article could apply to A3 :) update: a dev did respond, thnx

    A quantum leap - Arma 4

    not to be cheeky but a quantum leap would be an engine that can fully! utilize available hardware :) then ANYTHING is possible
  12. I just watched a video of the new island fromz made and all i could see was the pop-up vegetation...very distracting :( we had the same problem in cliffs of dover except it was pop-up buildings :( , i really hope that it does get fixed it really is an immersion killer
  13. is this not how iron front came to be? did it not start off as a free mod for A2 like invasion 44?
  14. Dwarden be careful, i think the Chinese government is spying on BIS ;) I think Fromz might just be 中åŽäººæ°‘共和国国家安全部 :D nice work Fromz :)
  15. I did not read the last 70 pages so forgive me if this has already been answered but i am curios as to what engine powers VBS2?

    Alpha Lite ends on June 25th

    I believe i read the 28th is when the beta is released
  17. it is a more comprehensive and in depth explanation of the differences between 2.0 and 3.0. ---------- Post added at 20:14 ---------- Previous post was at 20:10 ---------- ARMA is more CPU Dependant than GPU, a 670 VC should serve you well along with a 3570K
  18. you should be able to play almost anything on high/ultra with that rig :) you will have to wait for the final release of A3 to get a true idea of how you rig will handle it, but the odds are in your favor :)
  19. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/07/18/pci_express_20_vs_30_gpu_gaming_performance_review/3#.Ub4A9s6Vs1I complete article http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/07/18/pci_express_20_vs_30_gpu_gaming_performance_review/1#.Ub4BEM6Vs1I
  20. ditto , i read a while back that 2 680's in SLI did not even saturate 2.0, now if you plan to SLI 2 titans well maybe you will need 3.0 :):):)
  21. complete system specs please and what frequency are you running your CPU at?
  22. im not sure DayZ would be playable on PS4 or XBOX 1 as those CPU's are running at 1.8GHz and A2/A3 don't use multi core's real well :(

    Any planes or jets?

    well it would be nice if there was the option of flight model difficulty, easy,medium,difficult, realistic...it just adds to the immersion :)
