Thanks, I'll use the search to find it.

The only trouble is, my display is a projector and I use 24hz for BDs so will I still be able to switch to that when I like with your settings?

I made a custom resolution of 1920x1076 in Catalyst control panel and forced it to 60Hz. Then you can select 1920x1076 whenever you need it in whatever application (crysis 2 etc) and 60Hz will be forced. You wont notice the 4 pixel difference.

Cheers.

I don't really understand why there are no refresh rate options in games any more.

i'm getting 80-100 fps on crysis 2 with dx11 + high res pack +max'd out settings.

what drivers are you using and res?

At what res? 640x480? There's no way you're getting that framerate at anything like 1920x1080.

Yeah I was about to say that.

nuclear drivers?

i'm getting 25fps if i'm lucky with everything maxed out at 1080p

He must be talking faps per second due to the sheer awesomeness of the graphics.

Ultra Everything at 2560x1600 and its a slideshow for me

2600k @ 4.8, dual 6970's, 8 gig of ram

only drawback from having a high res monitor i guess.

 

[Strife212]

Going over 2GB VRAM perhaps?

 

[Nodiggidy123]

Going over 2GB VRAM perhaps?

good call. perhaps when the graphics options utility is re-worked then you can lower some of the AA and perhaps get better fps.

do u even need AA at that res anyway?

Annoying with eyefinity as well.

hmm it should run well for you thats pretty much like having a 6990 right? sounds like your having the same problem as me disable tessellation and your fps should rocket and it doesn't seem to impact the visuals.

 

[chaparral]

disable tessellation and your fps should rocket and it doesn't seem to impact the visuals.

disabling tessellation is going make a big difference to how some parts of the game will look..

DX11 tesselation is certainly working, look at the bricks:

similar setup to myself except i am using SLI 480.
this suggests you should be on par or slightly ahead of me

I was worried it would make it unplayable on my monitor with the new packs but it has held up well. as I said in my findings here, disabling motion blur helps loads.


must just be a driver issue. it cant be anything else.
what storage drive are you running the high res pack from?

editor is out

So now that people can create new stuff, there will be new life for the game yet?

im assuming this is the problem your getting? it fixed the problems i had in crysis and warhead in dx 10. u may have to co to ccc everytime tho.

That seems to be the only way of sorting it but then I loose the 24hz option completely. I'll just have to mess with it just for this game. It does looks great though.

Edit; just tried the 1920x1076 custom res trick and that works.
