Unexplained FPS drops
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Whenever i play Arma 3 i get random drops in my FPS. And it drops down to 10 FPS. Without any extra load entering the screen at all. This basicaly happens even if i am staring at a wall. After the drop it keeps itself arround 10-15 FPS througout the game making it pretty much unplayable. My PC should be good enough to run this game at very high or ultra settings, but this same issue keeps comming up even if i switch to low. And during normal gameplay it keeps arround 30-40 FPS at max. Evem at low settings.

I just ran the most demanding showcase with this PC (Actually RAM has been upgraded to 16GB 1600). The Helicopter one.

I used HWiNFO64 to monitor my GPU and CPU clocks. During the entire showcase my GPU load never went above 40%, and my CPU load was at around 40-60% load the entire time. Max FPS during gameplay was 25. Average was at 19 FPS

This to me is unacceptable with the type of rig that I have. And it is clear that Arma 3 can not utilize my hardware. This should be addressed ASAP.

Settings where custom with rendering at Very High settings and AA turned off and view range was at 2000.
