Crysis, is it still the hardest game on your system?

fullinfusion · May 9, 2009

Thanks DP but what one will fix the full screen problem im having?

DrPepper · May 9, 2009

My friend has that problem too. Erm I think the latest cats fix that problem.

ShadowFold · May 9, 2009

Doesn't fix it for me. When ever I try to use 1920x1080 in DX10 it just shows a black screen.

Hmm thats rediculous that such an error hasn't been fixed.

ShadowFold · May 9, 2009

Doesn't really matter to me honestly. I play in DX9 mode anyway.

Tyr.1358 · May 9, 2009

Nope. I can run crysis fine. Dead Space, however, brings my processor to it's knees. Don't know why.

Guys with the resize issue...IIRC its shift and enter or ALT and enter to resize to fullscreen.

ALT + enter worked for me like a charm.... thanks

Mussels · May 9, 2009

you people with the wrong size and black screen issues, might be suffering the interlaced bug.

See the 48x0 series thread in my sig.

it doesnt look like ass for me maxed out.......

i see you're on vista, im going to be moving to it today. But i took warhead to 8xAA and 16xAF, it looked like AF was working but AA did not.

ShadowFold said:
4x AA looks amazing.. No performance hit either. I see you have a 4890, you shouldn't get much of a hit in performance with 4x AA

In Crysis there's no such thing as free AA.
FPS ~halves when I enable 4xAA ingame.

Is the 9500gt this fast or is something wrong with this video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NsUm3ohaKs

Look at this specs and he says its max out and check out the performance he gets with that card?
If the 9500gt series is that fast, i might end up making that my card to buy along with the radeon card

DeathTyrant · May 10, 2009

I've recently upgraded from an 8800GTX to 2x GTX285s in SLI.
The hardest games on my system:
Crysis maxed out DX9
Cryostasis maxed out DX9
STALKER Clear Sky maxed out DX9

Playing at 1080p. Crysis is hard on the cards, but I do get very playable framerates. Cryostasis has some nastily-low fps moments.

a_ump · May 10, 2009

nah, i don't believe he's on enthusiast settings, let alone dx10. If you scroll the video to about 32 seconds, watch the sun in the top left area, there should be sun or god rays from the sun being partially behind trees, yet there are none. infact there are none through out the video, i watch up to about 5:16. and no u2k go with the 9600GT like you planned.

RadeonProVega · May 11, 2009

Warhead / Epic photo. When i was taking this photo, i was like daaaaaaaaamn, that look amazing.
I had to zoom in really quick tho

largon · May 11, 2009

Too bad you're missing a whole lot of amazing screens in your Crysis slideshow.

Hmm must be because I have an X2 :ohwell:

I get 4x free with literally no hit.

ATI do actually get large AA boosts in crossfire.

I forced 16xqaa in nvidia control panel and got no performance hit and improved image quality. Not 16xaa quality alot less but there was no performance hit.

10fps baby :rockout:

RadeonProVega · Jun 21, 2009

Just to let you guys know, i have crysis demo install and it runs at a solid steady 20-30fps at 1280x1024 aax2, low to medium to gamer(only thing on gamer is physics) however, running in direct x9 mode and the game is horrible. Seems like Vista is faster in crysis with direct x10, than direct x 9.

hat · Jun 21, 2009

Hm. Oddly enough with my 8600GTS, crysis was decent on all medium settings. With my 7900GT, it is unplayable with med-low settings. All DX9 in 64-bit XP. I figured the 7900GT would be faster.

directX 10 on low, tends to be faster than DX9 on low in many games. thats the way DX10 SHOULD be... its just that on the higher settings, the turned eye candy on, instead of letting us enjoy higher performance.
