What PC build?

[ImJustMaikey]

I'm working on getting a new pc. 

What builds do u guys use? 

and how much fps does it provide 

[0scar]

Fractal Design S case
evga supernova 1000 G2
ASROCK z170 OC Formula
i7-6700k
zotac 1080 GTX
32GB DDR4 RAM
2 samsung SSDs - 1TB each
Asus ROG Swift 2k monitor
watercooled 

Even with a high end rig like that I still get 30-40 frames in Kavala (80+ outside of kavala) despite having some graphical settings on standard. Arma 3 is absolute shit when it comes to optimization. If I play on 2k or on 1080p my frames stay the exact same...with all other games I can run them on their highest with little to no fps hit.

I now have a gtx 960 sc. I play on ultra and get 60-70 around the map, cities 50, kavala 45, cartels 45-60 sometimes drops to 35.

i5 4690k

R9 290x 

8GB DDR3-1866

Samsung 850 EVO SSD

 

All settings around max, I get maybe 45-60FPS around the map, maybe like 35-50 in cities. It varies a lot.

fx4300

gtx 750ti

8gb ram

samsung 750 evo

 

low settings around 20-25 fps

Built it two weeks ago (white build)

-I5 6600k

-Hyper 212 Evo

-ASUS gtx 1070 08G

-16gb ddr4 2400mhz 8x2

-ADATA 240gb ssd

-NZXT S340 (the elite came out a week later and I wanna cry)

 

Maxed out and I get 80-90 outside of cities and 60-70 in towns. In KOTH its about 40fps while in the middle of the battle

Arma likes intel cpus and Nvidia Gfx cards.  Keep that in mind if your building a pc for this game.

as for my setup:

i7 3770k oc to 4.2

evga Gtx 970 SSC

16gb corsair vengeance ddr3

stays a pretty steady 60fps.  Maybe get a few small drops in cities if server is busy.

I'm actually going to sell my current gaming PC when it comes back from servicing (it's still under warranty). So basically I should expect maybe at least $800 or $900 if I sell it whole. Idk. Anyways...the completely new build that I am going to get is..

NZXT Phantom Full Tower Case

MSI Gaming z170a M5 LGA 1151 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s

EVGA Geforce GTX 1060 Gaming (Equivalent to or greater than the GTX 970)

Intel Core i7-6700k

Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SATA 3 (SSD)

Corsair Vengeance 16gb (2x8Gb) DDR3

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

EVGA Supernova 650W G2 80+gold

Note:

The case that I listed does come with great fans, so there is no need for me to buy more. 

This is all within my budget, yet it is a fantastic build and it will perform amazingly. Obviously for Arma 3..I don't need to explain, we all know.

These parts are all on Newegg. Cost is exactly $1,273.97 (Including shipping in the cost). With instant rebate your new cost would be exactly $1,178.97 (You save $95 with instant rebate). 

Keep in mind that this is my build that I will order hopefully very soon (when the GTX card comes back into stock) and that everything depends on what your budget is and what your preferences are.
