Another FPS problem

[Yacez 0]

Im sorry this must be the 100th topic on this, but ive tried many things and no solutions yet.

Both in DayZ and Arma2:OA i get about 7fps (both singleplayer and multiplayer).

This is what im running on:

Intel® Core2 Duo CPU T5800 @ 2.00GHz

RAM 3.1 GB available

Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 32-bit

GeForce 9200M GS

Is it this dodgy hardware?

And yes i know i know, im buying a gamer desktop this month, but i want to play in advance ;)

Thanks in advance!

I'm no expert on these matters but i think it's your processor that's letting you down. The Arma engine is well known for working the processor hard.

Thanks for replying, any experts present then? :D

i agree, you dont have very much ram and your processor isnt the most powerful

but you should still get more than 7 fps, around 20?

your system is well under min specs for arma

your cpu is a little bit slow

your graphics is low performance due to a great nvidia naming job they keep the same core going for years the integrated card you have is basically as good geforce 4 mx just with improved shader model so it can support aero in windows and it only just outperforms a intel GMA 950

as far as dvd_fuller says about your ram. the amount of ram you have is fine for this game ive got 32gigs of ram and rarely go over 4 gigs when playing games thats what video ram is for.

i suggest wait for your gaming pc and play the game then

btw what gaming pc you getting

To be honoust i dont have much knowledge of hardware, i found this:

• Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-2600 processor
  
• 3,4 GHz
  
• RAM: 8 GB
  
• DDR3 1333 MHz
  
• memory banks: 2
  
• HD: 1,5 TB
  
• NVIDIA® GeForce GTX560 videocard met 1,28 GB DDR5
  

I wouldnt know but this seemed good for €750,-

Im having a friend to check out if he can make a better/cheaper one by assembly, just gonna wait and see and order as soon as i know that

that will run it fine mate for that card and cpu alone your looking at about 350-400 depending on the card maker if you go for a built pc you could get it slightly cheaper

this card out performs the one in that system by about 3-5 fps on direct x 11 games at full settings and tess with no oc and is a bit cheaper then that card

no amd cpu can hold a candle to the i7 but the i7-2600 also came as a embedded cpu if you were gonna build i would spend a little more and get the 2700k as this is only about 15-20 more but a lot more bang for your buck as they say very cool and take oc well.

if you want dual monitors at some point or run games in a high res on a 26 screen i would suggest getting a gpu with more ram in it

Is this magic? just kidding lol i dont know anything about Hardware, but thanks for the advice ill have a mate look into building a pc myself!
