I just played the new Crysis Demo (on DX9) with full settings. Words cannot describe how awesome the graphics are (plays a lot like FarCry, so if you liked FarCry you will love this game). Crysis > Bioshock (don't know about storywise) >>> Halo 3 (makes Halo 3 look outdated even though it just came out). I cannot wait to play the full game. Guess i will need to install Vista on my computer to get the full effect of awesomeness from the game.
I envy you ^.^ hopefully i'm getting a new computer soon, but for now i'm stuck with a two year old laptop to play it on, i only get decent frame rates with everything set to low
atx, what hardware are you running. i was able to get 30-40fps with low settings on my 7600gt and amd x2 3600 2.7.it played smoothly considering my low end rig.
I got a Q6600 and a X1950XTX with 4GB or RAM which is more than the average person and less than the enthusiast. I have had this card for over a year now and it has served me very well. Unfortunately in a couple of months it's gonna have to go. Making room for the next king of the hill. By full setting I mean the highest it will let me go on the demo which is "High" NOT "Very High". I doubt that this card could handle Very High settings. Well Maybe at a lower resolution.
thats a nice machine. i am going to upgrade to a quad core once the phenoms come out. and i am buying a 8800gt in about a month or so after i get some money. i cant wait to play crysis on high settings.
Well with highest settings in the demo, I get about 25 fps... Specs in sig. Heres a couple of videos I made of me playing: http://youtube.com/profile?user=Waymon3x6
wow! that looks much better than it did on my computer. i cant wait to upgrade so it will look like that for me.
Hmm, you have a duel core, mine is a old P4. I think its just your graphics card. Everything else looks good. However, if you're running vista then you can expect slower frames, until nvidia releases better drivers.
ya. my 7600gt is what is holding me back. so after my next paycheck i am getting an 8800gt. it will be awesome. and i am not runnig vista. there is no point. xp performs better anyway.
Thats pretty impressive that you are getting 25fps with an AGP card and a P4. But once again the X1950XT is just an underclocked X1950XTX with half the video memory.
Right, but I could sure use the extra 256mb of vram! I almost always run out playing RTS games. I played the demo at 800x600 too so I think thats why the frames were playable. I plan on doing some mods to the demo, like these: http://www.incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=12065 http://www.incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=11551 looks pretty good!
