Goodbye crappy framerates

[(ASR) DaiVader]

Finally upgrading my rig, I currently have a Zotac GTX 670 OC and tbh it just doesn't give out enough power for what I would like.

However as of tomorrow I will be running

EVGA GTX 680 Classified 4GB (x2 in sli)

So I should easily get more performance than the loved 780ti.

Finally frames will not be a problem at all, can't say so much for that desync though

Make sure you got a enough wattage on that  PSU now don't want you complaining tomorrow that you forgot.

Isn't the Arma engine linked to CPU power then GPU?

I know a friend of mine that upgraded to a 780TI from an old card and got only a 5-10 FPS boost, but when he upgraded to a i5 overclocked to about 4.5Ghz or something like that he managed a 20-30 fps boost out of the ARMA engine...

I'm already using a FX 8350 4GHZ 8-Core and it's no over clocked so I think I have enough CPU power already

You might want to OC that, make sure to get a good CPU cooler though, you can get a nice 4.5ghz from that cpu.

Using a corsair H100i so got plenty if cooling

Yeah, OC'ing your cpu will see an increase of performance/fps

 I am running i5 3570k OC to 4.33 ghz & 8GB Ram I also run it with a HIS Radeon HD7950 card with 3GB RAM running at 900 mhz after a bit of tweaking I get about 30-40 FPS on average but if I record it can drop to about 20 FPS so I was toying with a GPU upgrade myself.

However I have held off as I also heard that Arma 3 is very CPU reliant rather than GPU therefore I am very interested in what sort of performance increase you get.

i have two hamsters in wheels running mine ... i had three but one of them died(he still in there).

Been wanting SLI gpu's for a while so here's my chance, but I will deffo OC the core then and il post the results I get tomorrow when new GPU's are installed and running

Don't knock it, hamster power pushed us into the next age, maybe replace the other hanpsters with ferrets and you'll be away for another year
