Hello! So I figured it is about time I ask a few questions to some computer enthusiasts about my computer issue! When I play ARMA3 I am lucky if I get just about 20-25fps, usually lower if the settings are all the way up. Battlefield 3 I receive maybe 42/45fps. I am not sure if my CPU is causing a bottleneck issue? I am up for thought suggestions maybe change my motherboard out and go to an i7? Please leave me some input I would love to hopefully solve this problem :], Thanks!
