RamDisk

has this been verified to show an increase in fps i seem to be seeing conflicting statements and im thinking of trying this when i get home from work tonight? Someone stated that the game goes off the Arrowhead expansion and that this would in no way effect fps? If this has been brought up multiple times my apologies just got the game last night thanks in advance !!! :cool:

Someone mentioned this last night in a thread either to increase fps or fix a problem, not sure which it was. I do not remember anything being said about how much or little it could increase fps by, but if you are at an unplayable state you might as well try whatever.

Have you tried lowering your 3d resolution all the way down? Have you tried everything on this page here: http://www.armaholic.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=6713 ? Is your GPU or CPU faster? When you lower all of the settings to the minimum it puts strain on the CPU rather than the GPU and increasing certain options to high can actually increase rather than decrease fps. I haven't experimented with that but it does make sense if you think about it.

Make sure everything is off on your computer that could possibly be off, if your on windows 7 turn off aero, turn off everything that possibly could be turned off.

I will be checking back to see what happens if you decide to try the RAMdisk thing however. I was going to try it but would need a better motherboard with more RAM as it requires enough RAM to store the game and my Arma II installation is 9GB and my OA installation is 27GB and I only have 16GB. I never thought I would say "only 16GB" lol.

Anyway good luck. Really sucks to buy a game and not be able to run it properly.
