Crysis Warhead Ati Radeon 5870 Max Settings 8xAA 16xAF

[SpadeAce90]

if u want 50-60 fps on HD 5870 with core i7 920++ on 1080p AA must be turned off

[ItsTheChief117]

@SpadeAce90 Fuck i7. Get Phenom II x6 1075T for $220 vs $300.

[akamwar]

Can I max this game without lagging? my Specs:

2x 6950 2gb Crossfire

I7 2600k 3.4ghz

4GB RAM ddr3 1333

thx 4 replay.. (resoulation 1980x1200)

[Darkn3SsHeaven]

@akamwar

Don't ask such a stupid question like this. Of course it wont lag.

But try to get 4gb ram with 1600 minimum preferred (not 1333).

Crossfiring your 6950 will boost up the game

Also try to buy a good custom cpu cooler, so you can overclock easily which will fly your spec system...

[GenoSkill]

@akamwar are you fu@ing trolling?

[nicratos]

maximun AMO XD THUMBS UP LOL

[VIDOTTONATOR]

I CAN RUN MUCH BETTER THAN THIS WITH GTX 295!

[Fortune2point0]

That CPU bottleneck makes me sad =( Such a weak processor to go with this card

[agearmaster1]

@Fortune2point0 Phenom 940 3.0ghz

[Fortune2point0]

@agearmaster1 Ah, you've upgraded. Didn't OC that processor at all?

[agearmaster1]

@Fortune2point0 the old cpu?no

[CobraGMW2]

cant wait to buy the next gen 6xxx or a 6770 when it comes out it was confirmed to be the same price as the 5xxx was.

and the mid-high end cards could handle crysis at 2560x1600 on High Settings

[bubrockit]

I'm getting a 5870 near the end of summer, i have a 550 watt PSU from OCZ and I just found out it's not enough...

I can barly afford a 5870 as it is so i'm going to have to wait and buy a larger PSU when I can. Do you know how that process would be like? i'm upgrading from a 5770, is there any sort of process to follow upgrading from a 5770 to a 5870? should i install the drivers for the 5870 before I shut it down for months?

[agearmaster1]

@bubrockit No just get a 700watt psu and upgrade.Yu d have to unistall the 5770 drivers

[3Metal]

@agearmaster1 Poor knowledge. 550 watt PSU is perfectly fine. 700-800 would be minimum to avarge for crossfire configuration.

[agearmaster1]

@3Metal 550watt is a very limit so dont recomend a 58xx card with that cause you may have other things on you pc .A 650+ for a 58xx card.

[3Metal]

@agearmaster1 No, no, no... ATI and AMD recommend 500 or 550 as minimum. If that weren't true, someone would sue them. Like happened with Windows Vista. The fact the guy in the store told you you need 650 minimum wanted you to buy it, which you did. Same happened to me with the old 4850; moved from 450 to 550 altho 450 can run perfectly fine. Also, as long as you have a dual core processor with 3.2 ghz each core - youll be bottlekneck free. Get your facts straight.

[agearmaster1]

@3Metal Im tired of this damn Psu talk here! Why be at the limit when you can get a 600 watt psu for 50$ Better be safe.

[3Metal]

@agearmaster1 more then 500 for 1 card is more then enough. 650+ for two cards. with 550 youre already very safe

[GermanOpenings]

@agearmaster1

A "normal" PC with a pretty good quad core (i% at least), two SATA-HDDs, BluRay-ROM, 8GB RAM DDR3 takes with a Radeon 5870 around 350-380watt - tested and also confirmed by nearly every review on that card.

[agearmaster1]

@GermanOpenings 600watt are so cheap is better to be prepared that to be always at the limit.

[GermanOpenings]

@agearmaster1

Yeah, you should anyway have at least 20% of "space" between maximum need and what your psu delivers at maximum. So with a 600watt psu you won't do anything wrong. But anything higher than that is just not necessary and generally more expensive.

[agearmaster1]

@GermanOpenings Thanks finally a decent comment

[nawaz2kx]

@agearmaster1 not really, as long as you have an 80+ effecient psu, you can get get 1000 watt if you wanted. best off getting a psu once rather than keep changing psu's everytime you upgrade. 600watt is a little on the low side to be honest.

[agearmaster1]

@nawaz2kx Tell that to everybdy here not me ;)

[moomother12345]

How are the FPS with no AA and AF?

[MrVpanchal]

looks like you r playing Battlefield BC2 and not Crysis Warhead? am i right

[dichnei]

i think Crysis looks better than Crysis warhead...but i love this grafic card... i think its one of the best of the world :)

[Andycreep11]

show FPS

[agearmaster1]

@Andycreep11 Stop spamming crap on vids!!

[leon31886]

i've got i5 750 and hd 5850 why can't i get it smooth like urs? same settings...

[MoenFilm]

Will my pc run Crysis in 1920x1080 with :

4gb ram

2cpus 3,14 + 3,2 ghz

Windows 7 Ultimate

xfx radeon 4890

[SniffelzZ]

no... need more gpu power if u lower ur setting yea

[brotherofhumanity]

@MoenFilm Maybe, it is possible...

[darthvadermasterchie]

will i get better frames with 5850's in crossfire. A lot of people say one 5870 is better!?

[Adaub7282]

one OC'd 5850 can match a 5870

[garystorey]

yeah but an overclocked 5850 couldnt even touch a clocked 5870.

[delisakir66]

@Adaub7282

yeah!!

one 5850 with Overclocked is better than one 5870!

[agearmaster1]

Dude but the 5870 can be overclock...lol

[delisakir66]

@agearmaster1

dude 5850 i cheaper than 5870...

[SomeGroupProductions]

@delisakir66 pluss the 5850 has 600 less cores.

[darthvadermasterchie]

whats better one 5870 or two 5850's in crossfire ?

[ScrewFearMe]

of course its 5850 in xfire

[darthvadermasterchie]

@ScrewFearMe are you sure?

[ScrewFearMe]

yeah... but you could buy a 5970 and get maybe even better perfomance for the same price....maybe...dont know what your prices are...but 2x 5850 are better than 5870

[SaitanMar]

@darthvadermasterchie Depends, Crossfire can be a tad dodgy with certain games. Often developers need to do some reworking to take full advantage of Crossfire.

Would probably be faster 70% of the time, but I'd still go with a single 5870 because you wouldn't need to wait for game updates.

[delisakir66]

@darthvadermasterchie one 5970

but 5850 CF better than one 5870

but one 5870 is cheaper

[brotherofhumanity]

@delisakir66 Yeah and two HD 5850 in Crossfire are faster than one GTX 295. Who is the winner?

Yes, ATI! xD

[CGR3MBY]

Like i JUST said. I missed-typed! I'm 100% sure that Crysis (and Warhead) only uses DX 9 and 10. Crysis 2 on the other hand...

[CGR3MBY]

Sorry, I meant DX10. So you say 1680x1050? Maybe I should try that...

[CGR3MBY]

Btw, which patch do you use? Perhaps there's only the 1.0?

[CGR3MBY]

i5 750. 4GB RAM.

So you are saying that I should run the game in 32-bit? Even tho I have Windows 7 64-bit? I play in 1920x1200 in DX11.

[moonshiry]

crysis has no DX11

[brotherofhumanity]

@moonshiry How do you know that?

[moonshiry]

@brotherofhumanity umm cuz i have the game? and theres no option? and its also inside the specs of the game? but i think crysis 2 will come with DX1

[znoozaros]

i'm pretty sure that crysis has no dx11....

[brotherofhumanity]

@znoozaros Crysis has no DX11, because it is a DX10 game. In fact, Crysis was made in 2007 and DX11 has been created in a second half of 2009. Pwnd...

[znoozaros]

@brotherofhumanity Yes... and i said it has no DX11 so how did i get pwnd ?

[brotherofhumanity]

@znoozaros Well, you was quiet confused when you wrote about Crysis...

[znoozaros]

@brotherofhumanity "has no dx11" gotta be rly stupid not to understand <.<

[brotherofhumanity]

@znoozaros I`m pretty sure that you know a little about DX11.

[znoozaros]

@brotherofhumanity i know what dx11 is

[brotherofhumanity]

@znoozaros well, if you know what DX11 is, you wouldn`t say that crysis has no DX11.

[znoozaros]

@brotherofhumanity it doesn't

[brotherofhumanity]

@znoozaros Yes, it doesn`t have DX11, so stop commiting that

[znoozaros]

@brotherofhumanity i know it doesn't so stfu

[brotherofhumanity]

@CGR3MBY Crysis has no DX11.

[CGR3MBY]

And I play with NO AA and still 30-40 fps.

[Leopardipzg]

You have a bad CPU. And using the 64 bit exe if you have 64 bit windows helps the game to use everything from your pc.

[agearmaster1]

No im playing at 60 fps while recording with fraps the most demanding game ever with graphics and AA at max and Af.Dumb ass

[CGR3MBY]

@agearmaster1 I only get around 30-40 fps (without fraps) with my 5870. How come you get so high?

[agearmaster1]

depends on what area i am in.The first level is mosly 40t 45 in the train parts is 30 to 25.Whats your Cpu?

[moonshiry]

sooo wif my 955 oc 3.4 - 3.6 ghz + 5870 +4 gig ram i should be getting same specs as yours? Cool! i cant wait for my PC!! ive been waiting for 3 years

[yosmer333]

lol what's the difference between 16xAF and 4xAF it look same for me with more FPS

[koshymoshy]

more AF makes the textures less blury at a distance

[Xiquad]

why dont you make gta 4 video

[Nomad2243]

lol my GTX 260m in my laptop sits at 59 C Idle. its a very Hot card but its designed to get hot.

[FEROFEDO]

man im a noob on pc but... what is af ???

[imrandomlol]

@FEROFEDO Anthryscopic Filtering i believe

[Czyerx]

Anisotropic *

[narutopw1337]

haha I can this at ~43 frames/sec with everything overclocked pretty high @1080p res.

i7920@4.16

5870@ 1000 and 1265

[moonshiry]

what resolution u playing?

[oscarebest]

i have a 5750 that is a bit overclocked and when i play crysis at highest settings the card gets all the way to 60 C is that very dangerous and can brak my graphics card? :O

[agearmaster1]

@oscarebest Thats perfect

[oscarebest]

okey thanks for the fast reply :D

[cgkgbg13]

60c is not that much I think.. My 6800 ultra ran at over 100 back in the day :)

[oscarebest]

OOOOO cool did your graphics card break? xD

[krasav4ik82]

6800 series cards was the bad thing Nvidia ever made. I burned mine, what happend to yours?

[Nomad2243]

I don't know a lot about Radeon graphics cards and how hot they should get but that sounds perfectly fine.

my GTX 260m sometimes gets up to 95 C.

graphics cards are designed to get very Hot. Radeon cards are generally cooler then Nividia cards. Nividia uses larger Transistors so they pump more power through each Core making it a lot hotter.

[cometz13]

Radeon cards generally (especially 4xxx)

tends to get hot but can take it .

[Xjordanary]

@cometz13 the 5870 is actually really good for temp control compared to previous but yeah other than that one i agree.. i used to have a 5770 and yeah.... cook something on that XD

[GeeakFreeak]

@cometz13 The opposite. The Radeon HD series are cooler than previous cards.

[cometz13]

@GeeakFreeak

generally, yes, but when you look at ALL of their cards, the 4k series gets hottest of them, but their chips are made to whitstand that.

[Mik3Anix]

Im thinking about 5850 since its almost same like 5870 but alot cheaper

[xxsolidsteelxx]

Just got a XFX 5870 and a Phenom II X4 965 BE to go with it. I got the new 125w model so I can overclock it all the way to 4Ghz!

Nice vid!

[moonshiry]

oh seruous? with the C3 955 will go about the same? u using after market cooler or stock

[ThomasBellarusa]

Bet the card is HEAVILY bottlenecked by the phenom 9750

[Edxwx]

yup

[TheGuiCRS]

You're dead-on right. A PII or an i7 with mild overclock would make a GREAT difference on performance.

[ThomasBellarusa]

Yeah, even overclocking just the present processor would raise FPS heavily. Though older phenom's don't overclock that well (Well I got my 9650 to 3ghz but guess that's just luck).

[agearmaster1]

@ThomasBellarusa I got a new much faster cpu

[agearmaster1]

@ThomasBellarusa i got new cpu

[GUITARPLAYAx93x]

@ThomasBellarusa its actually not, a q6600 doesnt even bottleneck this card.

[ThomasBellarusa]

q6600 is better then 9750 10%.

Well how about running some tests with the new processor and see how it doesn't bottleneck it then?

[GUITARPLAYAx93x]

@ThomasBellarusa when i actually get the card i will, i ordered it at the beginning of december and it still hasnt even left the warehouse in california. i live in virginia. but when it actually gets here ill be glad to

[ThomasBellarusa]

Oh sorry, I confused you with agearmaster1, seeing as he already owned the card.

[dyslecix]

I doubt it 4 cores is more than enough for htis game..

[ThomasBellarusa]

Clock speeds are more important then amount of cores, in gaming..

[moonshiry]

i doubt the game even utilizes the 4 cores

[SpicyTaco362]

im thinkig of getting this graphics card ft battle field bad company 2

[SpicyTaco362]

thats good

[wesker1994]

I will buy this video card tomorrow

ATI 5870 1GB OWNED

[Pikalikasq]

6:09. Realy smart thing to do, using silencer to blow up a car :\

[Abs9106]

tbh you could get better results by dropping the aa to 4x or 2x and upping the resolution. But if thats the highest res your monitor can do then i strongly suggest you get a new 1080p monitor or higher as that card is complete overkill for all games except a couple at that resolution.

[najibbakr]

could you pls tell me at what resolution are you plating this game and at what settings

[JTCPingas09]

It says it at the beginning of the video.

[Ultragamernumba1]

omg fag cant u read? 1400x900

...

[Ultragamernumba1]

cock sucker ?

ur mom is a cock sucker that what she always does.

[Abs9106]

it says at the beginning. 1400 by 900

[SteelCity1981]

Have you tried to overclock your Phenom X4 9750 to 2.8ghz? You might be able to squeeze an extra 7 or 8fps more.

[agearmaster1]

i will just need to get a very good cpu cooler!ANY RECOMENDATIONS?And thanks for your comment...

[SteelCity1981]

I've seen people push the phenom X4 9750 to 3ghz, but that maybe pushing it on air with that cpu, but OC @ 2.8ghz seems to be the norm for the most stable overclock twith these cpu's.

Something like a ZALMAN 9500A would def do the trick, you can buy it on newegg's website for 43 dollars with free shipping. 1820 votes on newegg gave hit 5 out of 5 can't go wrong with that score and people seem to rave about it in the user reviews.

[JTCPingas09]

I tried OCing my Phenom X4 9750 to 3GHz but it locked up on me.

[SteelCity1981]

Yeah me too the best i ever got it was 2.8, i guess i could have pushed it to 2.9, but that's even pushing it. I'm completely happly with pushing it to 2.8ghz, it's about 8% behind the phenom II 920 in overall benchmarks using 3dmark06

[K1LL3R76]

I remember the first time i tried to play this on a 8500GT 256 MB lol, lagged so much but i still beat it, great game, got a GTS 250 a whiel ago, would you recommend this card, im building a New PC and it seems way more superior to a GTS 250

[cky4980]

kinda bit slow btw great graphic .

[spasko12345]

you all play the game on 1920x1200 very high .I just cant wait to buy a better video card so i can play it 1440x900 very high

[GDYP]

what resolution is this?

i have a 5870 with a core i7.

I play at 1920x1200 very high no AA

and i get about 31fps average...

why is yours so much better?

[voldagut95]

There could be many reasons. Maybe it's your Power Supply? Maybe your Motherboard? Maybe the temperature at your CPU/GPU? =)

[GDYP]

I have a 1000W power supply

a core i7 920 at only 60 at full load and about 45 during gaming.

and the GPU doesn't seem too hot.

I had faulty memory could that be it?

I just sent it in to corsair (I have 6gb of 1600mhz dominators)

[GDYP]

OHHHH!!!

urs is overclocked!!!

I didn't see that....

I need to overclock mine.

[Coerced]

Although you might see a performance gain of about 10% doing that, it's really just the resolution that causes the performance difference.

[agearmaster1]

Not really

[Coerced]

Have you tried your framerate at that resolution? It can make a big difference, and if that doesn't make up for your performance difference, i'd try lowering your 3d settings in ccc. That can make a big difference.

[GDYP]

How to you measure the temp for the GPU?

[shinester184]

Catylyst Control Center (Search 'CCC' is Start Menu) for GPU temps.

[agearmaster1]

is about right i think

[JobForACowboy0069]

1400x900

[moonshiry]

your resolution is insanely high. For other games, its fine. For crysis, i suggest u tone it down to max 1680X 1280

[ThatFlipKidxD]

Is there any bottleneck with the processor paired up with the 5870?

[happytimewhoa]

what resolution do you play at??

[Gamerzlife]

i laugh that this game has been out for three years, and it took three years to be able to max it out with one card....

[domains33]

No your not liying ... showing fps would help tho.

But theres no way a bit 128 could push all its specs even on ddr5.

nvidia was saying the gt9800 was qwicker than the 4830 want was lies.

Just like saying the hd4770 was qwicker than the 4850.

the price rage is the truth most times.

[agearmaster1]

There are other video out there showing frames. i would like too but I dont have a camara.

[WhatsAfterThisPlace]

gt9800 I have that card, lets just say its cheap and you can run games on high but expect some glitching :D im actually saving for this card. More bang for my buck

[domains33]

The benchmarks your see in google lie.

ati lies less then nvidia though.

[agearmaster1]

But your saying that i lie by putting this and telling the fps?

[domains33]

See he said about 30fps...

so its like a hd 4830...

nicer eye candy in games with no movement.

marketing lying..... its only 128 bits... it can't push all the other specs.

[agearmaster1]

What?

[SimplyCarLo]

Goddamn! That's a single GPU? Caliente...

[games2007]

I'm getting my dual 5770s on monday in my new computer =D

Wootz

[nukeum2]

How well does your machine run supreme commander?

[agearmaster1]

Want me to post a vid?

[nukeum2]

Yeah that would be awesome!!!

[madzane94]

ye does any1 know when the *actualy* 5000 series drivers gonna com out, cuz really know 1 knows what these cards can do when they runnin on 4800 series driver...

p.s: v9.10

[snokprok]

they just came out

[82ndProductions]

Out now! :D lol

[madzane94]

my 5770 cf pwns this at cheaper price xD

[agearmaster1]

Really!Good for you...  :)

[killerclown789]

How overclockable is the 5850 ? do you think it would reach 1000mhz and at what fanspeed ?

[roshawn1111]

thats a lie post a video

[NiNm62]

on the other hand: more power drain, more heat, more noise. just saying

[Yoshimatsu414]

Thats a crazy OC on the 5870.

I'm buying the 5770 for my new Win7 PC I'm going to be building though, I hope I can OC to that speed.

And I'm going to buy another later after build.

[Win98Error]

May be if he turn down some graphics settings his frame rate will get some boost.. or lower the resolution.
