4870X2 Crysis Cloud Flicker

[Matutu]

Hi guys,

Im currently running 2 x 4870X2's in a crossfireX setup. Unfurtunatly i seem to have a problem in Crysis where some trees and clouds are flickering at like a 100 times a second, now i have had this issue from Drivers 8.9 to the new 8.12 and never seemed to have found away around this.

Does anyone have any idea what i can do to solve this issue?

I did have this but it resolved itself with newer drivers.

Otherwise, if you take apart the exe, you will see the following;

Set GPU_0 = CurrentGPU(0)

Select Case GPU_0.Vendor
' part of Nvidia's agreement
Case GPU_0.Vendor = "ATI"
GenerateRandomArtifacts.Run
FramerateFactor = 0.5
Case GPU_0.Vendor = "Nvidia"
FramerateFactor = 1
End Select

What about your RAM - how much GB you've got it?

I have 4GB of ram with a Q9650 clocked to 4.2Ghz , so should be able to eat crysis when put with 2 x 4870X2's but just cant seem to get over this issue Rafster is that all you did install new the new drivers?

Also i was actually stupid enough to open my .EXE LMAO! then read it lol

Yeah, I think I got rid of it sometimes by pressing Alt+Return twice (to go into windowed then back to full) which seemed to sometimes work.

Think it went away after 8.9 for me.

Ah, Crysis was written in Visual Basic. No wonder it runs like a dog!
