Re: The Tech Forums Official Crysis GPU Benchmark Thread
well merks q6600 was at 3.0 and gts oc same as mine and his overall was 52, so idk if he got lucky or whats wrong.
o well, im not to worried though, i was almost done with the game but gave up...ive been sick so i dont even feel like gaming.
I guess ill try finishing it sometime soo to just get it off my mind.
There's a couple of things.. how many runs did you make of the benchmark? Make sure you do at least 2, because the first run is always the slowest because it has to access the HDD..
Also, Crysis is really not that CPU-intensive, so my 3.0GHz doesn't mean much.
52 fps was a bit lucky, because I still can't hit that exact number, but I'm still above 50 every time I do the benchmark. That run I did, I made sure I had nothing else running in the background, service or process, I had like 24 processes running in total, plus I think I had my ram overclocked with timings of 3-3-3-5 @ 800MHz at the time, not sure what that would've done.
I see you had uTorrent, Internet Explorer and AVG open at the time as well.. make sure to close everything possible.
My score is really not that unrealistic of 512GTS, Guru posted another chart from another forum showing similar results, and mgcook's Ultra does about the same, and we've had almost neck-and-neck results in any benchmark or game where AA and ultra high-res are not a factor.
