An interesting comparison - we have the exact same cpu at stock and are getting this humongous FPS difference - I wonder what I would get if I got a 9800 card come September time! certainly shows that at higher res with FSAA it all goes down to the GFX card on modern games as long as the cpu is half decent to begin with.

It's all looking good for Crysis methinks :p

Looks like I used 16x FSAA instead fo 4x making the different so huge it makes Jesus cry?

I get better results in Vista too, I used to get 84~fps with 4xFSAA in XP but on Vista it's over 130fps.

I think the Vista drivers are much better really.
