@ 2008/09/18The Cry Engine was not only said to be visually upgraded, but also in regards of the performance. You still need a high-end card, but all in all Warhead is running a little smoother.
At high details the Geforce GTX 280 is up ahead with the GTX 260 and the HD 4870 behind it. With a 9800 GTX+ or a HD 4850 Warhead is slipping down to the average framerate level. The game is slow on anything lower than a 8800 GT. At maximal details the Radeon HD 4870 is the winner, but even on this card Warhead is unplayable with those settings.

water refractions slightly better with DX10, smoke more dense. That's about all I could see, running DX10 drops performance same as before
