Is it normal for me to get 20 - 45 FPS in ARMA 3 with my current build? I play @1080p Ultra. I tried disabling all AAs and setting Shadows to low with no improvements at all. Is there something wrong with my computer or is this normal?

System:

Intel Core i5 4690k @ 3.5Ghz, MSI z97 PC Mate, Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 gaming, 4x2 Kingston HyperX blu 1600Mhz, 1 Tb Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm, Corsair CX600M PSU, Corsair AF120 Performance edition 3x, Xigmatek Stock fans 3x, Xigmatek Mach PC Case, Asus VX239H 1080p IPS LED 23".

Welcome to the Arma engine. That is a bit low but it is a notoriously horribly optimized engine. I would update drivers (clean reinstall if they are up to date). Try tinkering with the various render distances too that has a huge effect on performance.

I actually tried setting field of view to "0", and nothing changed, is that what you mean?

No render distance. Its been a long time since I've played Arma but there should be sliders for "draw distance" then something like "detail draw distance" and a few sliders like that. If you play around with those you might get better fps. I used to be able to get a max of 60-70 (with the lowered draw distance) in forested areas but it would drop back down really low during combat or in cities. I have a 660ti also.

OC your i5 to 4ghz it should give you a nice fps boost
