I dont think theres a need to overclock my cpu its the same one i was using with my 470 and i got like 60 fps on medium with that. With this it down clocks my mhz (Bc Arma says it doesnt need more than that) and then only uses about 30% of the gpu I just want it to correctly tell my gpu "Hey we need the whole thing for this game to run fast" Bc I know for a fact I could get 60 fps with gfx on high wo AA or shadows

My current CPU is an i7 950, a bit old I know but I see no need for upgrading i highly doubt arma is using all 4 cores to their full potential (not including the extra 4 virtual cores). The problem is definately from bad optimizng and I wanted to know if there was something I could do to the card itself or the game just to get it to actually use more than 30% of the card at 300 mhz. (Way too low compared to the base core of 1071mhz)

Yeah I was so happy when I got the card (I upgraded from a 470) and its AMAZING on everything besides arma lol. But don't let that discourage you the cards great and I would suggest mine because I have yet to see the temp to go over 59 degrees celcius and the fans never go over 50% its whisper quiet but yeah any help, greatly appreciated!

Hey Guys, So I just got a Gigabyte Windforce OC GTX 680 and I absolutely love it! There is, however, one problem, my FPS in Arma 2, OA and Combined Operations. I notice this when I play normal Arma as well as the DayZ mod. I will set my graphics to the lowest or highest they can go but it doesn't change anything. As some of you may know the new Nvidia 600 architecture includes a GPU clock boost where the card independently controls the Mhz of the core clock. Although I will get 40 fps average the clock is turned down to 600 mhz~ where as normal for the 680 is about 1071~. Arma 2 also only use about 40% of the card according to my EVGA precision. I wanted to know if there was anything I could to help set Arma to fully use my card instead of telling it it doesnt need as many Mhz and only uses 40% of those that it assigns. I also thinks its worth mentioning that in BF3 (An extremely well optimized game) I get no lower than 90 fps with 90% usage of my card on all Ultra settings so I know this problem is not related to the card itself. If there is anyway I can boost my FPS I will try it, whether it be further overclocking, a performance mod or what have you. I also youtubers playing the game on high graphics with the same card and not experiencing this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated!
