8800 and Crysis.

[ZozZoz]

Chinese site Hardspell.com has published the first (?) Crysis benchmark results:

Test system: QX6700, Asus Striker Extreme, 8gb DDR-800, 2 Raptors in RAID 0. BFG Physx (courtesy of Ageia) + 8800 GTXs in SLI.

The fps results listed below are as follows: Min, MAx, Avg.

1024x768: 33,4 68,5 43,9

1280x1024: 17,3 51,2 36,8

2560x1600: 0,2 4,8 1,7

Settings were as follows:

Graphics set to High Quality
Physics effects: On
AA and AF : OFF

Go figure...

EDIT: the system was running Vista

If two 8800GTXs only get an average of 36.8FPS in Crysis on 1280x1024 without antialiasing, there is a major problem. This may all stem from no real Direct X10 support as Nvidia has yet to launch an official driver, and they may have had to run it on Direct X9, where performance would be much worse.

update:

Testing was done under DirectX 10 (that is TEN). oh my....

Developers still have time to optimize the game... wonder into how many fps that would translate.

Gee thanks Ageia.

I kinda doubt their benchmarks.. aren't some of the latest vids done with the g80 as one dev said? Sure I see fps go down a little in certain situations, but 95% of the time it seems really fluid.

In the last thread I saw about this the most likely explanation discussed (if the bench isn't a pile of poop) revolved around poor sli driver development... I have a feeling performance will be around 2-3 times better with the final product after full optimization of the drivers, game, and vista.

It'd better be, I spent too much for sh!tty FPS in a DX10 game.

I'm very skeptical of those benchmarks. There is video of Crysis running at this year's CES on just 1 GTX pretty smoothly.

exactly, i think Chinese are taking us for a loooong ride... :lol: 8)

 

[Nova46]

I call bullshit. Crysis demos (in game) have been run on a single 8800 GTX and the frames were smooth as butter. Crysis won't be out for months, so how in the hell does some small Chinese company get it?

im skeptical of those benchmarks too...however now that i think back to when oblivion first arrived...they had tons of game trailers running insanely smooth, and thats when the 7800gtx was popular and the 7900 was just arriving, then when i got oblivion on my fx55 2 gigs 7800gtx system, it ran like complete garbage on 1280-1024..... its hard to beleive marketers, because thats exactly what they are, marketers, they just want your money.

 

[LAN_deRf_HA]

Well unless it wasn't really a gtx i think things will only get smoother on it.

P.S. Rayne for life!

 

[jonrem]

True, but I just can't see these benchmarks being legitimate on a system with those specs unless there were some serious driver/coding issues.

 

[LAN_deRf_HA]

well, i think theres no doubt that there are... not that I trust those benchmarks either though

Those are fake and gay as hell. Just like that level 505 or whatever site it was called.

Visit nvnews.net for more detail on that chines bs :roll:

And you should be, they are bullsh1t.

Agreed. 100%

 

[cappster]

I don't see the company that makes Crysis could have it coded that poorly or had it be that demanding. They would cut out 99% of their market hence 99% of their profit would be flushed. I just don't believe the benchmarks. I call BS.

yup, it's like the r600 benchmarks article "we've seen" a few days ago. some web sites are full of sh!t.

[skud]

i think it is total bogus, ill believe benchmarks when i see photographic proof, its just like that level505 website for R600, total BS

 

[chuckshissle]

I'm sure Crytek is working on this issue right now. Hence the delay. As for now an average system would shit itself in rendering this game. It's like 30fps in the game menu and a slide in gaming and don't even talk about huge explosions.

 

[danjal]

This is like doom 3... the apha was leaked and it ran like dogs balls, 'if' there was a game released, i'd say it's no where near finished with it's tweaking

 

[MikeGR7]

Total BS!! Really Gay indeed.
The Chinese sister of level505!

Photographic? That wouldn't tell you much about the frame rate...

according to Nvidia's website even the latest driver 100.59 does not offer DX 10 8800 SLI support. Besides this game can't take this much power to run or they would only sell about 1000 copies.
