Well last night i was playing around testing and playing crysis so i thought i would benchmark it on my system at bone stock speeds and then compare that to the results i already have running my system over clocked. the results couldn't have been further from what i thought. anyways here are the numbers.
CPU Test-CPU @ 3.0GHz
CPU Test-CPU @ 2.5GHz
GPU Test-CPU @ 2.5GHz Video card @ 576 1350 850
GPU Test-CPU @ 2.5GHz Video Card @ 621 1512 1900
One to two frames per second defference i couldn't believe it, and this is using the built in Crysis benchmark. so i thought i will go and play through the demo betting that actual game play wouldn't be as smooth. wrong again it plays just as smooth as ever, it looks just as good, i don't notice if the game is scaling anything back, i am still running at 1680x1050 med setting.
So is it because at the res i running at that my 8800 320 can handle the load, i don't know all i know is running my CPU at 3.0GHz or 2.5 doesn't seem to have whole lot of affect on how well crysis runs. Has anyone else tried this?? turning down your over clocks and see if performance changes. what do you guys think?
