 Crysis |
If you're at all into enthusiast computing, the highly anticipated single player demo of the hot, new, upcoming FPS smash-hit Crysis, should require no introduction. Crytek's game engine visuals are easily the most impressive real-time 3D renderings we've seen on the computer screen to date. The engine employs some of the latest techniques in 3D rendering like Parallax Occlusion Mapping, Subsurface Scattering, Motion Blur and Depth-of-Field effects, as well as some of the most impressive use of Shader technology we've seen yet. In short, for those of you that want to skip the technical jib-jab, Crysis is HOT. We ran the SP demo with all of the game's visual options set to 'High' to put a significant load on the graphics cards being tested. |
Even without at any anti-aliasing, the frame rates in Crysis are relatively low with only the 8800 GTX able to break the 30 fps barrier at 1280x1024. PNY's 8800 GTS 512 tries to keep pace with the powerful GTX, but remains 2-3 frames behind at either resolution.
