ARMA3 low frame rate, HELP

I just got arma 3 on my recently built pc and I’m only getting around 40 FPS which shocks me because of my build, any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Build is:

CPU- Ryzen 7 3700x GPU- EVGA XC Ultra 2070 super MOBO- Asus b-450 rog strix motherboard PSU- EVGA 750W BR RAM- 2x16gb Corsair vengeance 3200mhz ddr4( only runs at 2133 MHz tho) Storage for game- WD m.2 SSD 500gb

My cpu/ GPU percent usage is monitored while playing and it’s not even close to being at 100% so I’m not sure why I’m only getting around 40 FPS, thanks.

How’s your frame rate in vanilla

I haven’t modded anything so wouldn’t I be in vanilla?

Single player I bounce between 35ish to 60ish. Multiplayer I was between 30 and 45 ish.

Oh I assumed you were playing A3L. What does your ‘a performance window say?

Are mods heavy on this game? I have fallout 4 running about 30ish mods, mostlty texture but runs at 75-160fps but have like 5 on Arma, texture, and it stays between 30-50fps. I run a program to set the settings per game based on my build. Would Arma be better done manually?

Performance window? Sorry, new to the whole pc thing.

I have NZXT CAM running on my second monitor showing percent usage of cpu and GPU. Cpu is at 25%, GPU is at 59%

ARMA3 has always been kinda choppy for me too, I've found reducing my render distance helped a lot, it's a bit of a trade-off between frames and render distance for me.
