 Crysis |
If you're at all into enthusiast computing, the highly anticipated single player demo of the hot, new FPS smash-hit Crysis, should require no introduction. Crytek's game engine visuals are easily the most impressive real-time 3D renderings we've seen on a computer screen to date. The engine employs some of the latest techniques in 3D rendering, like Parallax Occlusion Mapping, Subsurface Scattering, Motion Blur and Depth-of-Field effects, as well as some of the most impressive use of Shader technology we've seen yet. In short, for those of you that want to skip the technical jib-jab, Crysis is HOT. We ran the SP demo with all of the game's visual options set to 'High' to put a significant load on the graphics cards being tested. |
Crysis can really murder a system, and it apparently really likes to have a frame buffer size of at least 512MB, which is not surprising since Crysis is such a demanding game. The 8800 GT 512MB puts the hurt on the 8800 GT 256MB XXX Alpha Dog Edition, as well as the rest of the lot.
