Crysis Demo Performance Analysis

@ 2007/10/27

There is no doubt that Crysis is going to be at the top of the priority list for both NVIDIA and AMD as we see more drivers between now and the end of the year. It will be interesting to see how much more performance AMD can squeeze out of the HD 2900 XT, though it really doesn’t look all that good for them since the 8800GT has rocked up on the market.

very CPU limited review tough, only 1 FPS lost for min FPS when going from 1024x768 to 1600x1200 on high settings and still not the DX9 vs 10 shootout that I want to see (with screenshots so we see what we kill our FPS for)

Comment from jmke @ 2007/10/28

Episode2 is not taxing for VGA

Supreme Commander is "old" already, even with new mission pack, any half decent GFX can do 1600x1200 high detail

Crysis is the only one in your list where the game doesn't even let you select higher resolutions/details if it detects a VGA card that's not powerful enough

In the demo "very high" is grayed out as an option with 8800 GTX on DX9, you'll need Vista to set it

Here's another performance tests, with DX10 testing and high vs very high setting: http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid...e=expert&pid=2

The Very High quality settings performance drops pretty dramatically – without AA it goes from 41.1 FPS to 29.2 FPS which is 40% lower.

Comment from jmke @ 2007/10/28

it does look sweet

and the demo is not too short either, high re-playability

Comment from jmke @ 2007/10/28

the screenshots of DX9 vs DX10 made me believe the water would be static in DX9, it's not, it moves with ups and downs, and the game hardly looks bad at all.

Comment from Rutar @ 2007/10/28

the really interesting performance analysis is going to be be DX10 vs 9, or as I call it "Windows Vista: Judgment Day"

Comment from jmke @ 2007/10/27

1600x1200 High Detail running pretty nice on C2D @ 2.8ghz with 8800 GTX
