Hi everyone! I bought Arma III during the Steam summer sale, but it feels pretty much the same as Arma II. I understand the engine isn’t optimized well, but there’s definitely something more going on. Here’s my setup: Motherboard – Gigabyte-X79-UP4 CPU – i7-4820k @ 3.7GHz (with H60 cooler) GPU – Gigabyte 3GB 780Ti OC RAM / Memory – 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro Series (2133MHz) Storage – Primary: 2TB SSD, Secondary: 120GB SSD (just copied from Steam) Please let me know if this is related to a poorly built rig or any other factors. Thanks! -Arvnhor
You're focusing on a higher-level fix, not just the hardware. Which approach are you targeting?
It's unusual! Here are some things to check: Install the newest Nvidia drivers. Test other tough games like Bioshock Infinite, Crysis 3, Far Cry 3/4, etc. Notice if FPS remains low even at top settings. Also, use a benchmarking tool such as Heaven: https://unigine.com/products/heaven/ and GPU-Z: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/. This helps monitor your graphics card's temperature and other stats. You can save the data to a file by choosing 'Log to file' in GPU-Z. Use this method to see how your card performs while playing Arma 3.
This tutorial helped me a lot and it also works for DayZ. Arma runs on just about 30% of your GPU and CPU, which means the engine feels older but still functional.
The issue appears more clearly in multiplayer, yet it doesn’t function properly in single-player mode. I’m hoping it’s not a problem with my PC.
Thanks! I'll attempt all these changes and get back to you soon.
