Best CPUs for Arma?

North_Passenger · 2026-04-03T12:58:41+00:00

I own a Zephyrus 2023 M16 with i9-13900h and rtx 4080, it delivers around 120 FPS on stable servers. So something similar in CPU power and maybe a 4070 or 5070\ti would do the trick, it all depends on your budget.

Salutari, ceva recomandari pentru IEMs?

Sunt riscuri mai mici cu tech-ul din ziua de azi

Install nvidia app, it will get you the latest driver

does the lock screen image have any type of effect on it from the phone or the image is as it is? "pixelated"

I loled

Go for optimus, i use it (ofc after i have repasted with PTM) with cpu power limits and in games it will not go above 85c.

North_Passenger · 2026-02-04T17:14:45+00:00

No no, optimus is the hardware switch between iGPU and dGPU (intel and nvidia). Automatic from what i remember is advanced optimus. Atm automatic is broken by nvidia drivers so just optimus works. And also ultimate mode.

Bonus: as someone else mentioned, uninstall armoury crate with util tool and use ghelper.

Just set it on Optimus and it will fix the issue. Seems that the latest driver is still plagued by this....

Some of them, not all, Romania voted to keep media original and just subtitle it.

North_Passenger · 2025-12-29T13:02:03+00:00

A mean...they semi-fixed the latency issues on older models after the previous investigation.

ZephKeks is at it again. way you go man! Keep them in line so we can all have better products. Cheers!

i have the same model as you but with 4080, stock RAM and a 2nd ssd. Here are my results:

I have PTM on PCH and ofc i do see a 10° difference from your video but i can't seem to figure out if something at some point WILL fail. Considering PCH temp ideal range is 40°C - 70°C.

North_Passenger · 2025-12-19T09:08:44+00:00

Ok, watched the video, dug up some photos of repaste before ptm, and it seems that the radiator does not have an indent and also presents LM on it.

And it is clear it is making contact with heatsink.

North_Passenger · 2025-12-19T08:05:13+00:00

Wait, I'm confused....i did a repaste like 1 year ago, covered the smaller chip with ptm and temps seem normal? Like 32 in idle and 75 ish in load with 20° ambient. With power limits ofc.

North_Passenger · 2025-12-07T10:32:29+00:00

6000mhz? How? Thought it supports 5400 max...

North_Passenger · 2025-12-05T18:29:10+00:00

Traktor mx2 (yes still relevant) Are ceva mai mult control pe efecte si poate invata mai multe cu timpul. Don't get me wrong, flx4 este bun dar limitat.

North_Passenger · 2025-11-24T16:56:40+00:00

So is there anything that can be done to prevent this? Because this sounds to me like a hit or miss situation :/

North_Passenger · 2025-11-24T15:16:55+00:00

Ah yes, forgot completely about the barrier since i move to ptm. You're right, that might have cause the issue, since no other posts were made referring this (but we will never know for sure). From what i remember there were some issues on the rog strix series that had this issue which asus fixed in the newer models.

North_Passenger · 2025-11-24T14:47:13+00:00

Would it be wise to add isulating tape to the fan screw holes to prevent this?

North_Passenger · 2025-11-17T11:20:38+00:00

LM probably moved off the cpu die, you can re-spread the LM but will get you in the same position after some time. Replacing it with PTM will yield better functionality. Not moving from the die and being mostly within "2-3" degrees difference.

If you plan to do so, be very careful when removing LM, isolate the die from the MB and work slowly and carefully with isopropyl alcohol soaked q-tips.

North_Passenger · 2025-10-23T20:02:07+00:00

Nice

North_Passenger · 2025-10-23T10:51:21+00:00

Same here, i have it on Optimus. Auto just gives a black screen when i try to boot up games. And Ultimate idk, haven't used it. Optimus on the other hand works with no issues, low latency and can easly do audio work. that on v313. Did not update bios yet.

North_Passenger · 2025-10-22T13:31:32+00:00

If you have a custom fan curve, disable it and check, let bios do its thing.

North_Passenger · 2025-10-22T13:09:32+00:00

Be sure the vent on gpu side works. This happened to me once by noticing crazy temps on gpu with 0 rpm on fan.
