os- windows 8.1

with this pc i run Rust on 30-35 fps any ideas to make my pc better fps wise please get back to me

The gtx 760 is 'The' middle of the road gpu, anything lower is basically considered a low end gpu, anything higher being a high end gpu. That said, there are basically 4 things that affect fps on any given game.
1. Ram. At 8Gb you have enough to run anything.
2. Cpu. That i5 is strong enough to handle any game, any stronger cpu will not increase fps very much.
3. Settings. If you are trying to run taxing games at ultra with heavy shadows and anti-aliasing etc, its going to affect fps greatly. If you lower settings to high/very high, you will get a considerable jump in for on many games, yet nothing noticeable in some like minecraft.
4. Gpu. Probably the largest area of possible increase is a higher end gpu. Keeping same settings, a...

4. Gpu. Probably the largest area of possible increase is a higher end gpu. Keeping same settings, a move from a 760 to a 770 can yield 10-20 fps, and a 970 would put Rust over 60fps consistently.

If you are not interested in upgrades, you have 2 options. Relax your settings, or overclock the gpu, both of which can get 10+ fps if done right.

thankyou, appreciate it, also on arma im playing at maybe 50-60 fps on ultra, so that is good, and i know it wont go higher because of my monitor only 60hz

The gpu is physically capable of high framerates. What you get to see is 60. What happens is if you currently get 50-60 in Arma, and you got higher with less settings, like 70-90, you'd see a consistent 60fps on the monitor, which is seamless game play.
