    The performance you can get out of ArmA 2 is very limited even on high end gear. ArmA 2 does not utilize multiple threads and cores properly. You can use a command line to "help" it on its way, but its still far away from being optimal. You would be able to notice this by looking at your total CPU usage during gameplay, aswell as which cores are being used to run ArmA 2. In most cases, you will see it mostly using just 1, and at occations, very little of a 2nd core. This results in very bad performance on high-end rigs, or rather, limited performance.

    Your best bet is to lower graphics as much as possible, ive got a few config tweaks that are almost bound to give you another 30-50 fps if you like. It will reduce the overall quality of the picture, but help the game run better on the limited amount of cores it is able to use.

    What are the config tweaks, cant hurt to try them out right?:)

    Okay, so Arma 2 alone runs fine, 60+ fps all the time, and so does Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead..

    But the Day-Z Mod runs like 20 - 30 FPS and then sometimes drops below 15FPS

    I can run any other games maxed out completely at 60+FPS, why cant i run Day-Z?

    is it bad coding for the mod? Or am i doing something wrong?

    Thanks to whomever helps me:)
