itsthatguy 0 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) So I've tried just about every fps fix I could find. All my visual settings are on very low/disabled, I've done editing in the config file, and I've lowered rendering distance as well, but my fps still remains below 20 at all times. Any other ideas? EDIT: My bad, I forgot to include system details: Processor: Intel ® Pentium ® CPU 997 @ 1.60GHz 1.60GHInstalled memory (RAM): 4.00 GB (3.89 GB usable)System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor I'm pretty sure this is the specific processor: http://ark.intel.com/products/69360/Intel-Pentium-Processor-997-2M-Cache-1_60-GHz Edited July 3, 2014 by itsthatguy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kichilron 8550 Posted July 3, 2014 Might be a good idea to post some information about your system, and such? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TG ! Jimmy 216 Posted July 3, 2014 Hey mate, Just seeing as how you haven't posted any system specs, or the specifics of any steps you've tried--could I recommend a particular guide? This well-written DayZ FPS guide has a breakdown of a lot of settings, as well as the various commands you can for startup parameters etc.. I think it'd be worth reading over. Hell, even if you feel like you've tried everything it may have a few new ways of doing them that helps you out. It made a difference on my machine back when I did it!

nik21 287 Posted July 3, 2014 Your computer is simply too slow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsthatguy 0 Posted July 3, 2014 I can hardly play the game at this framerate, so essentially I have wasted my money? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC_Hawke 276 Posted July 3, 2014 That's a very low end CPU. Arma 2 is a very demanding game. It requires a CPU with very good single thread performance. If you look at this benchmark list and do a text search for 997 you will see it very low on the list. You'll need a much better CPU and a good graphics card to be able to play with decent FPS.

colekern 1364 Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) I can hardly play the game at this framerate, so essentially I have wasted my money? Yes. Did you even check to see if your computer met the minimum system requirements? Your computer doesn't meet any of the requirements. Your CPU is almost 1 GHZ below the minimum.
