I have a pretty decent pc. My pc specs are:
Motherboard: MSI z97
CPU: i7-4790
GPU: GTX 970 4gb
Power: 750w
Cooling: Stock (yes i know..lol)
RAM: 24gb
I am not able to run CPU intensive games like ARMA 3.. I have to have them at "standar" settings and im still only getting around 35 fps. I just upgraded it today from the i5-4690k and im seeing no difference. What can i do to unlock the full potential of my PC? I see streamers running bascially the same set up im using who are running "Very HIgh-Ultra" and are getting 55-60 fps on multiplayer servers. Any help? Thanks in advance :)!
