You're 100% right about optimization, but implementing DLSS/FSR/XESS into a game engine that doesn't already support it is difficult, and ARMA Reforger's Enfusion Engine doesn't natively support it. FSR 1.0 is a much simpler and faster to implement, unlike FSR later version of FSR and DLSS/XESS, which is why it's the only upscaling technology currently available.
I found this video before I had to leave for work. I watched it at work and now I'm home and went over all this shit for the past bit and it's looking so much better 🎉 I saved this and liked it.thqnk you for the time and effort you put I to making this. I read the comments while I was at work to see what other thought ❤
Thank you so much for the in depth video, this probably will save me so much time and allow me to get much better expirience, thanks again, insane your channel only has this amount of subs considering the quality of the video.
My personal favorite settings based on what I saw in the video are as follows: Window mode : borderless FullScreen Render Scale : 85% or 95% Fidelity FX Super Resolution 1.0 : Yes Vsync : Yes Draw Distance : 1700m or 3050m Nearby Depth of field : no Post Process anti-aliasing : None Depth of field quality : None Ambiant Occlusion : Ultra Screen space Reflection : none or ujltra contact Shadow : Yes Hardware anti-aliasing : x2 Foliage Smoothin : Grass + trees Model Geometric Detail : High Object Draw Distance : ultra Terrain Surface detail : Parallax + shadows HQ Terrain details : ultra Grass : Lowest (cheat) or High Grass Distance : 50m (cheat) or 150m Shadow Quality : high Distant Shadow : none (Cheat) or medium (1700m Draw Distance) Render Target Format : High Environnement Quality : Low Uses 2D Scope : No
Mine are similar - I also use Low grass and 50m for obvious reasons, render scale 85% for a nice FPS boost, I like Nearby Depth of field though, Screen space on ultra (sometimes the views are beautiful). Distant shadows I will still use on medium because otherwise It just ends up looking like Arma 3 and I'm not too sweaty to win. I considered using Environment Quality on Low but I feel like the coulds become too cotton fluffy. In the end those are nice settings, thanks for sharing!
it takes a powerfull gaming pc but man that game looks incredible good. love it. I will try your settings on my slightly undervolted and slightly overclocked 6750xt on 1080p and see if its still fast enough online. great work. best graphic settings video i have seen!
The amount of dedication you put in is just incredible and will help lots of people like me. went from 45fps to 75fps on average on a 6800XT. Thank you so much!
You are welcome! There are so many options that give little to no visual fidelity BUT has a massive impact on perfomance, even people with RTX 4090 should check their settings to maintain a FPS that respects the monitor hertz.

Thank you! Everytime I play a new game I look for the best settings online, for some of the settings could be broken or offer no good enough improvement of visual fidelity for the massive perfomance impact. Did not find one for Arma Reforger so I made it. Have fun!
It's crazy to me that draw distance barely affects fps. i7 3770k/1070. Our cards have the same amount of VRAM albeit GDDR5 vs 6. I think that has something to do with it. I am averaging 50fps and cannot gain or lose more than 5fps average by changing settings. I like this style of graphic setting comparison, thank you!
Thank you, I'm very proud of this video. You should test it on an area where you can see far away - if there's mountains or walls that block your view, the game does not render the things that are behind it, making changing the draw distance no change in the fps, the game is optimized in that aspect
The one thing that I think is missing from the test is comparing the render target quality setting while looking down a 3D scope, since 3D scopes are picture-in-picture. Otherwise, fantastic work!
Having played a lot of DCS I figured the cloud details would be a big hit to performance but not THAT big. Shocked at how much the high quality clouds crushed the performance.
good to see its not my computer having issues with the 'environment quality' setting - went from 80fps > 50fps on my 1080ti and immediately knew ultra was out of the question for that setting ... whats wild is high looks nigh on the same, maybe a 5-10% fidelity increase for 54%! performance loss!
@ I play in 1440p. That card is a legend, but it is showing it's age now especially if you use 1440p, I recommend lowering the resolution or maybe cap the fps and use Lossless Scaling frame generation
The issue with most engines is that when you put the graphics settings on the lowest preset, it offloads most of the processing to the CPU, and almost nothing goes to the GPU. This is why you get better performance with higher quality settings on some things.
Yeah cities and larger amounts of people make it suppper cpu bound for whatever reason. I hope they can fix/ tweak that because it seems it can get a lot better.
Really depends on the GPU, that's why I made this video so you can compare the likely performance hit on your machine for each graphics. Spend some time on the settings so you can have the perfect graphics settings for your machine as some graphic settings have a huge performance hit but some don't and make the game look good
World detail was my biggest FPS drain... With that on medium I can run everything else on ultra @ 1440p. Turn the world detail up and I'm down 40 fps... I only really noticed a change with the sky.
The settings I'm using? Yes, i do recommend If you have a 1080p monitor I would go 100% render scale, if not try to see if you have good fps even with a 1440p monitor on 100% render scale to take advantage of the monitor high refresh rate
What is your opinion in frame generation options like FMF2 (fluid motion frames 2) for "newer" amd cards? i was able to go from 100 fps unstable (sometimes more sometimes less) to almost perfectly stable 165 fps. the added latency is noticeable but its reported as only 8 ms by the driver, (i suspect its around 20 ms in practice and based around my calculations). i achieved that by limiting the fps to half the refresh rate of my monitor (82.5) and then enabling that option to generate x2 the frames. got the most stable config with those enabled , the added input lag is there but much more consistant so i think its more managable than it spiking all the time
I have never used AMD therefore I can't formulate an opinion, but sacrificing a bit of latency for better FPS can be good - user preference. Console players would love that option. I don't know if it is possible to use on games that do not support it, but Radeon Anti-Lag or something similar could reduce latency a bit
So Environment quality is just about the clouds? It seems so from the video. But seems strange, why not cloud quality or sky quality. Anyway, great video with work behind, good job. Please if you can, update the Grass distance with upcoming patch. They increased that from 150m to 300m, it's already on Exp.
Sure, it goes as follows (in order): I'm using 1440p resolution. (if you have 1080p then 100% Render scale is fine) - General - Borderless Full-screen 85% Yes No 144 1700m Yes - Post-processing - None Simple Ultra Ultra Yes - Quality - 2x Grass+Trees High Ultra Parallax + shadows HQ Ultra High Lowest 150m High ultra High Medium And 3D Scope.
@@thepurestchaos If I use your graphics settings, I'm short of 8gb of video memory and start dropping fps to 10 frames. Have you encountered this problem?
@@Люся-щ1и Yes I have in older cards in modded servers. A quick temporary fix would be to change terrain detail 11:18, if I'm not mistaken. If it isn't terrain detail then it is another setting that is close by it. Try lowering one of those settings and you'll see the fps back to normal - to maintain high fps and avoid that problem you lower the setting that makes the fps go back to normal when the problem occurs.
for reforger, better to change CPU platform or GPU? i have same CPU with slower GPU, and i wonder what i could change to have more frames, changing GPU would be cheaper…
Arma Reforger is a GPU intensive title, so changing your GPU would be better. You also have to understand that it depends on the graphic settings you are using and the resolution.
@@thepurestchaos makes sense, thanks - i do use FHD, and to be honest no matter of settings FPS are more/less same, that's why i wondered about CPU change, but as for now there is nothing good available were i live, 7800x3d price went x2
Grass (and fields) view distance is still max 150 meters.... What a downer. And on top of that, people can turn it down to 50m anyways... Say good bye to fair gameplay. Say good bye to realistic gameplay. Thx for the video.
I would also love if everybody had the same grass view distance, maybe it is possible to toggle such a thing in a custom server? It will increase to 300 meters in the next update though!
@@Jotaro_Kujojo I don't lay down when there's any grass around me. I, if I want to lay down to shoot, usually find hard surfaces or parts with little to no grass - grass blinds you
Depends on the computer and what you want to achieve. I'd assume you'd want an advange in reducing graphics, the only I could find is general graphics reduction for more fps and grass on low and 50m to be able to see more
I usually play conflict pvp, what would be the best setting down this list for that, i could care less about how beautiful the game looks, i just want high fps and able to identify the enemy easier. any help would be appreciated!
I believe grass is the main setting to lower in order to spot enemies better, you can play around with the other settigns, it does not matter that much
Hey, sorry to be that guy but i aint getting much help by other ppl, i m looking for a cpu/gpu combo that can allow me to run this game at high/medium settings at 1080p (framerate between 70-90fps would be good i guess). Doesnt have to be EVERY setting at high but just a nice combo of visuals and framerate. Thanks in advance!
Anything similar to a 4060 will do the trick, mine is a 3070 and it is a decent GPU for Arma. For the CPU, an intel i5 12400 or better will work fine or the AMD ryzen equivalent. The AMD x3d CPU's would be great. If you are on a budget -> the new intel B57-B80 are good, anything like a rtx 2070, 2080 or anything above rtx 3060 and AMD equivalents You would be running on 1080p so you would be fine with the budget cards
@@thepurestchaos thank you very much man i was suggested a rtx 4070/rx 7900gre and ryzen 5 7600x3d so that i could make an investment for future games or more demanding additions.
Grass distance aswell, but that's up to the developers to tweak. Also, server owners can put a minimum grass render distance, I wonder if they can cap distant shadows aswell
Seriously play this game low video output console and medium PC for better performance because the servers are capped at 30-60fps anyway and the environment ain't such as bigger hit graphics as you'd think.
Even if I put all settings to low this game still runs like complete shit. Even on a fresh install of Windows 11. Even tried it on Bazzite SteamOS. I have a 12900k/32GB/RTX 3080 12GB.
Many things can be the problem here: -Does the same happen for other games? -Did you download the Nvidia drivers? -Are you using the CPU's GPU (integrated GPU) instead of the Nvidia one? -Did you plug the HDMI / DP cable in your motherboard instead of the graphics card?
Man the hardware anti aliasing is horrible haha. Such a performance hit for such little improvement. Crazy to think it's still being used these days when we've had such massive improvements and options when it comes to AA.
Yes, and the environment setting aswell - why does it take such a massive hit? I can't wait for the day they will implement a better AA and/or upscaler

- Texture Filtering always on High
- 13:30 Distant shadows actually give improved visuals on Ultra on close-medium distances, therefore Ultra is the best setting.

@@thepurestchaos Thanks, will definitely try this method as soon as I get home from work
What map did you do this on? Arland or Everon?
It was recorded on Everon
for reforger, better to change CPU platform or GPU? i have same CPU with slower GPU, and i wonder what i could change to have more frames, changing GPU would be cheaper…
Arma Reforger is a GPU intensive title, so changing your GPU would be better.
You also have to understand that it depends on the graphic settings you are using and the resolution.
@@thepurestchaos makes sense, thanks - i do use FHD, and to be honest no matter of settings FPS are more/less same, that's why i wondered about CPU change, but as for now there is nothing good available were i live, 7800x3d price went x2
Underrated
awsome video
thank you bro !!!!
You are welcome!
thx you bro very nice video
good job sir
Thank you :D
Grass (and fields) view distance is still max 150 meters....
What a downer.
And on top of that, people can turn it down to 50m anyways... Say good bye to fair gameplay. Say good bye to realistic gameplay.
Thx for the video.
I would also love if everybody had the same grass view distance, maybe it is possible to toggle such a thing in a custom server?
It will increase to 300 meters in the next update though!
@@thepurestchaos Oh, i didnt know about the 300m grass view distance yet! Thx for the info.
Server admin can set the distance for everyone same.
How do you feel about shooting with grass in your sights while lying down?
@@Jotaro_Kujojo I don't lay down when there's any grass around me. I, if I want to lay down to shoot, usually find hard surfaces or parts with little to no grass - grass blinds you
Now someone make a cheat sheet with all the best settings lol
Depends on the computer and what you want to achieve.
I'd assume you'd want an advange in reducing graphics, the only I could find is general graphics reduction for more fps and grass on low and 50m to be able to see more
I usually play conflict pvp, what would be the best setting down this list for that, i could care less about how beautiful the game looks, i just want high fps and able to identify the enemy easier. any help would be appreciated!
I believe grass is the main setting to lower in order to spot enemies better, you can play around with the other settigns, it does not matter that much
Hey, sorry to be that guy but i aint getting much help by other ppl, i m looking for a cpu/gpu combo that can allow me to run this game at high/medium settings at 1080p (framerate between 70-90fps would be good i guess).
Doesnt have to be EVERY setting at high but just a nice combo of visuals and framerate.
Thanks in advance!
Anything similar to a 4060 will do the trick, mine is a 3070 and it is a decent GPU for Arma.
For the CPU, an intel i5 12400 or better will work fine or the AMD ryzen equivalent. The AMD x3d CPU's would be great.
If you are on a budget -> the new intel B57-B80 are good, anything like a rtx 2070, 2080 or anything above rtx 3060 and AMD equivalents
You would be running on 1080p so you would be fine with the budget cards
@@thepurestchaos thank you very much man
i was suggested a rtx 4070/rx 7900gre and ryzen 5 7600x3d so that i could make an investment for future games or more demanding additions.
@ Really depends on the budget, that is a more than a capable build for 1080p, it will be future proof for sure
14:34 so basically what the f. this is straight up an exploit.
Grass distance aswell, but that's up to the developers to tweak. Also, server owners can put a minimum grass render distance, I wonder if they can cap distant shadows aswell
You legend. o7
Seriously play this game low video output console and medium PC for better performance because the servers are capped at 30-60fps anyway and the environment ain't such as bigger hit graphics as you'd think.
server cap 60 means i just can adjust my settings to a stable 60fps cause more does not give me a bigger advantage?
Can you do this for uhhh..all video games. Thanks 😂
haha, some people recommended me some games to do it but I simply don't have them
Even if I put all settings to low this game still runs like complete shit. Even on a fresh install of Windows 11. Even tried it on Bazzite SteamOS. I have a 12900k/32GB/RTX 3080 12GB.
Many things can be the problem here:
-Does the same happen for other games?
-Did you download the Nvidia drivers?
-Are you using the CPU's GPU (integrated GPU) instead of the Nvidia one?
-Did you plug the HDMI / DP cable in your motherboard instead of the graphics card?
Man the hardware anti aliasing is horrible haha. Such a performance hit for such little improvement. Crazy to think it's still being used these days when we've had such massive improvements and options when it comes to AA.
Yes, and the environment setting aswell - why does it take such a massive hit?
I can't wait for the day they will implement a better AA and/or upscaler
who on earth run this game in ultra its impossible
Thanks a lot, mate!
amazing vid
No, you're amazing
