Thanks again man!

Hi all, I'll start by saying arma 3 is probably the only game me and the wife will play for the next 2-3 years! We are massively addicted to alot of the mods. Currently I have bought us both matching setups, (I5 3570K @ 4.5GHZ, GTX 760 2GB SC, 8GB ADATA RAM 1600MHZ) And for the most part every mod is playable at almost full ultra. KOTH however is our favorite mod. Before you say FPS is server related I talk to people in KOTH all the time who claim to get 35-60 FPS during gunfights in a city. Ours fall just shy of that at 28-35 FPS during city gun fights and 50-70 at base. My question is which part should I upgrade to achieve that extra 5-10 FPS that is needed to stay above 30. I'm sure it will be either GPU or CPU.

Thanks Groove this was very helpful!

And thanks groove that does help a little as I do like running my aa and pp up... But it doesnt change fps much when I drop them or disable them bloom/blur/aa/pp etc... So I'm assuming that means CPU would be my best bet?

Thanks for all the help guys.. Will probably get the new cpu anyway and try to clock it above 4.5... maybe 4.8? Also will be looking into faster ram thanks for the heads up! ---------- Post added at 08:24 ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 ---------- Also if anyone has specs that dont drop below 30 FPS in KOTH please reply!

Yeah I've heard alot of people say my specas can run the game well and it does for the most part other than in cities... I think it could be partly because of only having 4 cores. Either way I have great ping on these servers and no background processes running. Also my FPS and hers are exactly the same which leads me to believe it is def hardware related. So if you were going to upgrade which would it be? If I upgrade cpu it will be the I7 4790k. Gpu will go to gtx 980. thanks in advance!

Hi all I have a gtx 760 2gb SC, I5 3570k @ 4.5 GHZ just wonder which of these to upgrade in order to gain an extra 5-10 FPS in King Of the Hill. Thanks in advance!
