COD4 will handle very well, as for crysis being a benchmark, you'll have to download the demo and get a copy of the benchmarking app. *cue loadsa with links* :D

Might be better to get hold if crysis warhead though, don't buy it from steam, I've heard the benchmark program doesn't work with the steam version.
 
I orderd it yesterday =] Yeah i might give the card 2 my parents since they have a 6600GT which i nackerd :D playing Good old BF2 back in the days =] everytime i go into a black area it gives me white pixels so it looked like snow :)

Its would be for the spare Computer =]

but if they don't want it i will sell it :)

will do mate =] i heard this card runs super hot? will i need a new cooler?

No it is designed to run like that, don't worry.

If you do want it a bit cooler you can always mod the bios to ramp up the fan speed earlier, or have a higher fan speed while at idle.
 
so what is the best way to benchmark a Graphics card?

Benchmark 08?
is there GFX Benchmark out there?

Has The original crysis a benchmark like warhead?

Or do i just go into a game Crank up the Graphics and see how much FPS i get?
 
Best peice of advice: Don't. Boot up all the games you play, the settings you want, and if it plays as good as you were expecting it too, leave it alone. Benchmarking will only lead to a series of irrational purchases to up a score largely irrelevant to gaming enjoyment :D
