Will give that a try, thanks.

Downloading the demo now, would be interested in knowing this as well.
*** SLI is working with the demo if you have the latest nVidia drivers (not sure about crossfire)
*** GPU PhysX is broken out the box - to fix this run the PhysX install that comes with the game TWICE the first time you run it, it removes certain components but fails to replace them with its own until ran a second time.
*** With some/many SLI setups you will get better and smoother performance by far from using 1 card dedicated to PhsyX with SLI disabled (unless you already have an additional card for PhysX) as SLI scaling is gimped by the PhysX workload - you don't even max out the potential of one card let alone 2.

All maxed but disabled PhysX.
Just ran this on my laptop. No screenshot unfortunately.
Got ~40fps average @ 1440x900 'high' settings, 8xAF, no AA and no Physx.
Not too bad tbh
(setup - Q9000 2ghz Quad Core, HD4850 Mobility 512mb (500/1750))
I will test this on my 4ghz Core i7 setup when I actually get a graphics card.... lol
The game (demo) itself however doesn't look that great if I am honest. The depth of field effect makes it look awful at anything beyond ~ 50 feet (in game).
Character models are good but the textures are low resolution.
No doubt these are both as a result of this game being cross platform?!

Yeah - huge game world + console = low amounts of data per texture.
I'm not that impressed either tbh, the character animations "snap" a lot and generally look outdated, weapon effects are underwhelming (and all teh debris doesn't make up for it) - someone firing a tommygun just lacks "punch" somehow, partly poor sound effects and vague firing animations.

everything on max (19x12 res, aa/x16 etc, physx on high, no vsync)
avg of 20, lol. Didn't look jittery which was good for me
ill bump down the aa for some frames. All's good!

All's good!that fix is great, decided to try anti aliasing on, physx medium, 3D vision on and only ambient occlusion off and the game plays for the most part really well framerate wise. loving the game too, great handling cars but the on foot controls seem to be a little clunky at times

No AA
Well everyone has different monitor sizes but they are all similar results bar that and PhysX pretty much?
Just tried it with the different Physx settings with a 5850 and 920 both at stock.
1920x1200, 16 af, 0aa, high shadow, high geometry, ambient on
Physx None: 7.7 fps low, 166.7 fps high, 56.7 fps average
Physx Med: 5.4 fps low, 100 fps high, 21.6 fps average
Physx High: 5 fps low, 90.9 fps high, 12.4 fps average
and it barely added anything to the graphics or game

All settings maxed including high Physx
SLi enabled:
SLI Disabled. 1 GTX 470 dedicated to physx: (only 2 fps difference on average)
3D Vision with all max settings including physx & AA: (Only 9 fps slower)
I think its amazing you only lose 9 fps by turning 3D Vision on and thats with everything maxed!!!
I do suppose though, its because physx eats all the fps so 3D Vision doesnt need to.
