Mebe it's the reso I tested at? Hmmmmmmmmm......I think I'll go try it again on my 2nd rig which runs an AMD X2 with 8800GT SLI n see what it does at 1280x800. Or mebe the patch doesnt improve anything in SLI?

Oh, I noted a small improvement on all resolutions - 1280 x 1024 up to 1920 x 1080.

Crysis has this odd problem with some drivers. It just can't detect the full resolution - 1920 x 1200 for example. Damn irritating.

What drivers were u guys using? I was using 169.25.

PsYkHoTiK · 16th Jan 2008, 10:35 PM

Same driver that I use.

I just checked Nvidia site. Latest Beta 169.28 says more performance for SLI n Tri SLI in Crysis when used with latest Patch 1.1. Hmmmmmmmmmmm..... I will try that n see if I can squeeze out a few more frames.

The fastest driver I found was a hacked 169.21.

The new 169.28 driver doesn't seem to help single cards, and it has that stupid resolution problem - cannot set 1920 x 1200 in Crysis.

What? N they say it's released specifically for use with Patch 1.1 to enhance SLI performance n then cant even select 1920? The only reason ppl go SLI is to play on big momma screens like 1920 n 2560.

Well, it's the same problem I had with Catalyst 7.12. Reinstalling the driver didn't help, so I think it's a driver issue. I had no problem with ForceWare 169.21.

Oh, I think higher resolutions are possible. Just that Crysis doesn't seem to detect 1920x1200.

I just downloaded 169.28. Will try n see if I can get it to run at 2560 n 1920.

30fps is what i got on a tri-8800GTX rig. using 169.28, patch v1.1@VERY HIGH, on a samsung 1920x1080 F-HD 40incher.

improvement from 169.25 with patch v1.1 is about 10fps
