Question for my DODS people

[BCA]

I have been playing DODS for years and now also play Battlefield 4. My FPS is low was wondering what you all suggest I improve to increase my FPS. I currently have a AMD 5670. 12 Gigs of Ram and a 2.8 GHz processor.

You be the judge?

You only get low FPS when you play BF4 but not DOD? I think it is because your graphics card is not powerful enough to smoothly run BF4.

BF I get 18 to 40 on low and then DODS I range from 80 to 150

Definitely a GPU upgrade, and depending on the CPU you may want to upgrade that as well. BF4 is just as CPU intensive

Turn V-Sync off and/or post your config file and/or i'll send you my config file.

you need a better video card to reach higher fps especially in a very demanding game such as battlefield 4, i would suggest getting a 2gb graphics card that has a high rating for such games that would require the power and speed such as that of a higher resolution capable video card like i suggested either nvidia or ati which ever is your preference

Turn V-Sync off and/or post your config file and/or i'll send you my config file.

Config off DOD or BF4?

Config off DOD or BF4?

Coming from Rufio, he's gotta be talking about DoD

Turn V-Sync off and/or post your config file and/or i'll send you my config file.

I wouldn't mind seeing your config file to see if I can make any improvements.

Thanks man! I'll give it a look.

For sure would get a new graphics card, You will probably get some bottle necking without upgrading your cpu as well but the gpu should increase your fps a good deal at least to make bf4 playable. Another thing to keep in mind is whether or not your motherboard supports the new cpu and gpu and also that your power supply holds enough wattage to power everything once installed.
