Hey all, first post here.
I just downloaded Arma 2 pack specifically for the awesome DayZ mod and I am running into major FPS issues. Its so choppy sometimes I can even run...so I die...ALOT! :(
My PC is pretty old I know but the specs say I should be fine but I am not sure how I can troubleshoot what part of my PC is the issue.
Gateway 5224
Processor Intel Pentium D 915 / 2.8 GHz
Memory 3326 RAM
Hard Drive 250.0 GB - 7200.0 rpm
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005
Geforece 9500 GT 1GB
Direct x9.0c
Now I THINK I have a bad memory stick as it was 4MB(2x2MB sticks) so I assume thats the issue.
But I really dont want to spend $100 upgrading my RAM just to find out the rest of the machine is still a problem when I can get a new machine for $500-600.
Suggestions on how I can test the performance to make sure the problem is ram?
