    If the dude in video is able to get smooth frametrates at 1900 res with high settings with 8800M GTX SLI(9800M GT SLI) then that means a dual GTX 260/280 or a dual Mobility 4850s system should be able to rape this game especailly with QX9300....

    arma is for those looking for a realistic experience, albeit kinda fun, but you need to be very patient, and with slow framerates....prepare to get a wig

    At least play it better, however a Quad Core CPU just do this game good. No GPU rapes this game and especially not notebook GPU´s. Even the highend desktop GPU´s have problems with this game.
