Not the happiest with the score, but any more gains I'm guessing would require nvidia to do some stuff... atleast I'm getting 50% higher performance than those 7900GTXs at a lower clockspeed per card... I reckon with nvidia on the ball and with 650MHz on the core the card would manage around 30-35fps.

For anyone interested, I installed Vista 64 last night (dual-boot) to see what score I get in the benchmark compared to XP.

With same settings/clocks etc.

XP32 - 32-bit, DX9 = 47.48 fps

Vista64 - 32-bit, DX9 = 38.39 fps
Vista64 - 64-bit, DX9 = 43.095 fps
Vista64 - 32-bit, DX10 = 40.265 fps
Vista64 - 64-bit, DX10 = 38.555 fps


E6600 @ 3.4 GHz
8800GTX @ 650/1050

Yeah I found 64bit to really help the dx9 bench in vista

 

[Trixxy]

I'm tempted to install XP64 on my XP32 partition to see what XP is like with DX9, 64-bit in Crysis.

My X-Fi/scanner/printer don't work properly in Vista64, but I dunno if that's due to Vista or it being 64-bit, so worth a try.

Interesting thread this.

I don't think you can't run Crysis in 64 bit mode on XP...for some reason it's a Vista only thing.

Looks like it's Vista 32 that drags my score down.

I did a little tweaking

E6600 @ 3213mHz
8800 GTS 640
Vista 64bit


Stock (513/792) - 23.075

Fast Memory (513/999) - 23.76 [+0.685]

Fast GPU (600/792) - 25.53 [+2.455]

As suspected, increasing the memory speed made very little difference but boosting the GPU gave big gains in comparison
Crysis is a very GPU limited game which is probably why the x-fires are doing so well

Would love to see another 7950GX2 score on this so I know if I've messed up the settings or if thats how it really does heh.

tbh it seems about right. The 7900s just lack the shader power required for Crysis.

Out of curiosity i swapped out my dual core e6750 for a quad core q6600.
Kept the same multiplyer and FSB 437 x 8 3500mhz, same memory settings etc.

Ran the Crysis bench and got almost exactly the same score as i did with the dual core.
Wasn't too impressed with that

IMHO
The game is GPU limited, and all the hype about it scaling up on quads is bull.

I've been saying it's GPU limited for eons and eons lol I knew this right from the moment I saw instant 10-15 fps boost going from a 320MB GTS to a 512MB GT.

An update, due to GPU tweaking...

Did push my rig to 3.01ghz.. but fps increase wasnt worth the increase in vcore I had to apply to get it stable.. 2.8ghz is stock volts...

Yes, it is sad that that Yerli character tried to sell everyone on the performance of quads in the game.

Perhaps he meant it will make a difference if you are running 640 x 480?

Oh well, at least Crysis isn' the reason I got a quad!

Well he would say that, Intel were sponsoring them

Im amazed by that, ive found that using vista 32 bit, and my ati card that going from dx9 high to dx10 high yields a huge hit in performance.
