Hey guys! I've played 275 hours of Arma 2: CO, with about 250 of that being on DayZ. It's became my most played game on Steam! I've always played on the lowest settings despite having a good rig, as Arma 2 isn't greatly optimised. I always get 60 FPS without any problems. Recently, I was playing on roleplaying servers, and of course they suffer from FPS problems, leading me to usually only get around 20-30 FPS even on the lowest settings because of the busy map! That's perfectly fine, and I'm used to it. But yesterday, I joined a RP server (after just leaving another without any problems) and encountered terrible lag! I had input lag, and general game lag, and I was only getting 3-4 FPS. I left the match, thinking it was the server, only to find that even in the main menu, I was lagging. I've heard of people having this problem, and I've found that I'm getting 3-4 FPS on the menu and in-game on all of Arma 2's components! I reinstalled every Arma 2 game overnight, but as soon as I launched barebones Arma 2 this morning, I found I was still getting 3-4 FPS in the menu :(. Can anyone help a player in distress? **Specs:** >*GTX 560 Ti - 1GB VRAM* >*AMD Phenom II X4 955 ~3.2GHz* >*4GB RAM*

He can run other games perfectly fine, getting 60fps on Skyrim with high settings, but no matter what the settings are on Arma, he lags. Even in the main menu, he only gets a few frames. We've tried hyperthreading, changing launch options, restarting, running as admin, reinstallation, changing settings, downloading drivers, windowed mode etc. but nothing's been working! Can anyone help? ---------- Post added at 15:43 ---------- Previous post was at 15:38 ---------- He's using 100% of his CPU :(.
