So I am having problems with FPS on Arma 3, the people that i've met on the game and friends have said that Arma 3 is very CPU Intensive, yet i do not have the funds to purchase a better CPU nor am i tech savvy enough to deal with it, and i do not know if my Graphics card is also a part of the problem, and would like some help/advice on it. Here are my Full PC Specs (is that Speculations or Specifics? never figured that one out either heh..)

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Quad CPU Q9400 @ 2.66GHz 2.67GHz

RAM: 8 GB DDR3

Operating System: 64-bit OS, x64-Based Processor (Windows 10)

Storage: 1x 111GB SSD 1x 75GB HHD and 1x 232 HHD

Graphics Card : AMD Radeon 5700 Series: Total Available Graphics Memory = 4864 MB (about 4GB yes?)
Dedicated Video Memory = 1 GB
system Video Memory = 0MB
Shared System Memory = 3840 MB
 
Solution
Yeah I doubt that system would give you an enjoyable experience in ARMA 3. I would want a better cpu and gpu, like said above both are likely holding you back.
