Hi everyone I am only getting 15-20fps when in heavy firefights in ARMA 3, I have my settings on HIGH, not ultra. My CPU temp during gaming varies from 55-65 temp and not sure why I am only getting these FPS numbers when playing offline.

My system specs:
1 TB Seagate (1000 GB) SATA-III HDD 7200 RPM 64MB
8 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 MHz (1x8GB) - (DDR 3)
Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 - Low Noise
24x DVD/CD Re-Writer
Intel i7 4790K - (4 x 4.0 GHZ) - Haswell
Fractal Design Define R5 Black (Sound Proofing Included)
Asus Z97-P (Intel Z97) 4xUSB3/2xUSB2
Corsair RM 850W (Modular) PSU - Low Noise/Silent
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 - 4 GB - (PCI-E) - (VR-READY)
250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD SATA-III, Read 540MB/s, Write 520MB/s - Silent

I think your GPU is either a bottleneck or there is a software related issue (Not updated drivers / Not the right settings for this rig)

Anyways Im sure the pro's here will give you the right answer.
