Best Graphics - inc mods? Wanna test my new PC

PESolution · 16 Sep 2011 at 13:28

So I recently got a new PC, spec in sig, and wanna play something a pretty as possible.

I know of GTA IV with a certain mod I can remember the name of which makes it look amazing?

Again I know there are Crysis realism mods out there which look awesome but there seem to be so many I don't know which to try?

Any advice on specific mods to use / games?

Thanks x

Am I right in thinking you are referring to the Crysis High Resolution pack + Direct x 11 pack with the "realism mods".

If not that really tests hardware.

Arma 2 on max settings will be a good test.

I don't know what theyre called exactly, just have seen few screenshots and references and want to try, but when I google I get lots of different ones so I wanna try the best!

Not just crysis and GTA IV as ive mentioned though - could be anything.

this is actually the hardest test Ive had for it so far - Seemed to get between 25fps (when near a lot of trees) and 45 on 1680x1050 everything maxed inc AA, with the exception of view distance which was around three quarters.

I was surprised at this as I get 45-60fps on Crysis Warhead on enthusiast

Also Crysis 2 with DX11 and the other mod. They are the 2 which test me the most

Metro 2033 can really strain a system if you turn it all the way up to 11!

Ramp Limbo up to 640x480 and watch it chug
