2 Hd4890's Crossfire playing Crysis Paradise Lost (snow level) Max 8xAA

[zoom26]

so that phenom is equivalent to a q9550? is that what the site is saying?

[dzul1983]

what is that sound in the background? sounds like you have a vacuum cleaner running..

[generationtim]

i cant play crysis either, i get around 10 fps with 2 HIS HD4890, witch sux. someone pls help me. i cant get i higher resolution than 1600x900 and have a 24" screen? i max every other game so, whats the problem?

[Maqnuslicious]

maby it's your PSU or Processor ?

[projundertax]

what psu?

[nubjealvin]

my 2 xfx ati 4890 run also shit on crysis warhead very sad that you buy a good card and the most populair game you cant play ;p

[buggamann123]

you stand 10 minutes ,. to get 49 fps :D

[NightHawk512]

btw nice videos beefdog,keep up the good work!

[Loves2spooge696]

Gaah, hate the intro song.

[djrules122]

I have the same CF Setup and I have a E8500 but I can only get 20-25 fps on that resolution with no aa. With 1920 x 1080 i only get 15 fps. Is this right?

[beefdog88]

It sounds like only 1 card is working

[seyyerin]

@beefdog88 make sure you have CF enabled in the CCC and your bios is detecting both? are you using one or two CF cables

[homes24]

whats the res

[Delinz]

I just bought the XFX Radeon HD4890 Black Edition. Thinking of buying another one to go with the crossfire. Would that be a good setup? :P

[JackeShan]

I just ordered 2 HD 4890 :D

Only had to pay for one too! Hope I'll be happy.

[NightHawk512]

Im sure u will, I got two of those and Im very very very impressed by the performance

[JackeShan]

I'm very happy. Playing Crysis on 1920x1080 all Max with 4xAA with 30-40fps. HOWEVER, when I look on lots of stuff the fps stays about the same but it feels like it drops to 15 or something. So I turned off AA and it is better, but still kind of drops even though the frames are the same as before :S

I guess it's a bug with Windows 7 and Crossfire.

[JackeShan]

Oh and if I keep the AA on 4xAA (or even 8xAA) and turn the Shaders on High the gameplay is extremely smooth with no weird fps drops.

[NightHawk512]

no its just a crysis being hardware hungry and giving a monsterous load on a hardware. Its normal to have fps drops

[JackeShan]

the thing is, the frames don't actually drop, they stay the same but it feels like it is dropping. Some kind of bug.

[KarlderHeinz]

yeah, 2 hd 4890 rocks!!^^

[thecssnoobz]

Snow levels in crysis eat less gpu ;)

[gregor14123]

hey

i buy next week two 4890

whats your minimum fps???

@enthusiast??

[beefdog88]

probably around the low to mid 20's in really deep action. but it really depends on your cpu

[dubmywub]

what would you rekon the pfs with same set up with my c2 extreme 3.8ghz

[26psyside]

Crysis is gpu intensive game dunno how much will faster cpu help but i think it will.You will get few fps more i guess.

[26psyside]

Do you set anyting trough the drivers or its on defaults ?

[beefdog88]

everything cept af is at the defaults

[26psyside]

Btw im an eye candy addict i max everyting it possible to nvidia control panel on max

supersampling,high quality texture filtering,

enchance the application settings 16XAF

4/8XAA @ 1920 x 1200 GTX295 getting

24 to 35 avg fps in game,with real life mod.

the game look avesome to bad at those extreme settings at some parts getting slow.

i might get another GTX295 or wait for GT300

or 5890X2 not an fanboy here i get what is better.

[dubmywub]

mate u know wen thAT ATI card is kumin out ? cos i realy wanna get that in crosfire

[TheLittleWorldofGaz]

soz iv found them now :P

[MacFlip1]

R u usin' the newest Catalyst?

[beefdog88]

i am now, i wasent in this video it was 9.3

[MacFlip1]

so how's the performance now? I've heard the 9.4 is far the best ATI driver...

sorry the bad English...

[beefdog88]

it is better, maybe 2 fps more...not much but its still more

[MacFlip1]

Whoa, i was waitin' for more than that beacuse of what i've heard, btw 2FPS in CRYSIS means a considerable increase of performance, Crysis is a fuckin' eat fps machine...

[lordmagnum92i]

I hope u have only activated 8*AA for the show because 8x is useless for a game as crysis is.

[Nuker1337]

hmmm, that's a really nice FPS. It has been a long time since I played this level, but it sure wasn't 50 fps, let alone with 8x AA (I've got an overclocked 4870X2, core i7 @ 4ghz ,12 gigs o' RAM and so on).

[DracoX9]

How the hell do you get MONEY for these parts? ;-;

I can't even afford a PC with an AMD Athlon 4400+ and a Radeon 4770/4830. ;_ ;

[jaju123456]

I guess he has a better job or eats less lol

[DracoX9]

Eats Ramen every night, skips lunch?

Lives in a cheap apartment?

Buys his food from Wal-Mart?

[jaju123456]

haha yes

[helldrell666]

The physx effects in this game are far better than the shitty physx effects in Morrors Edge that supports "on gpu physx acceleration".

How's the new phenom 2 doing?

Do you notice any drop in fps when throwing smashing..... objects?

[beefdog88]

Naw the phenom2 is chewing crysis up. Any kind of bottleneck would be a video card.

[jaju123456]

I chose Q9550 over Phenom II 940 which I got at 3.4ghz. Should I have gone AMD?

[Nuker1337]

no, clock for clock the q9550 beats the AMD in most cases from what I've seen.

[UsernameError69]

that is one powerfull mofo of a pc...what happens when u turn the AA down,is there a huge dif in performance because i know sometimes when u turn AA down on ATI cards theres almost no dif in performance..

[beefdog88]

literally 3 fps gain turning aa off :o

[UsernameError69]

ah,man,thats lame

[chambs1]

I get the exact same performance in Crysis at no AA, 2xAA, and 4xAA, and with multisampling and supersampling at any of these settings. People don't realize that up to 4xAA, supersampling is practically free on the HD 4890. I'm sure when I go Crossfire the story will be the same for 8xAA.

[26psyside]

Can you tell me something ? why does the main settings say

choose? did you actually apply the settings or just left at high faked ? select very high maybe ?

[beefdog88]

i read your comments on my other video before you deleted it. I dont understand why you cant believe that a $500 graphics card setup cant run crysis at max. just look up any review of the 4890. one can run crysis at max as long as you have a good cpu. 2 can destroy crysis

[26psyside]

Sorry for being an ass but to many fake videos on

youtube :S also when i set my settings in crysis

i use the main option to change all and it says

Enthusiast at your video i saw choose thats confuse me maybe im wrong dont know just

as i said before to many ppl fake the videos

not sure for yours tbh.

[beefdog88]

Its alright dude, i get it all the time....honestly, i have no reason to fake it. The thing is, it was already set to enthusiast and i dident even think to change it again because it was already maxed

[helldrell666]

a bench of HAWX would be great.

[robspierre6]

Marvelous.

[helldrell666]

Great vid man.

5/5.

[immortalproduction]

ok, thanks :D

[immortalproduction]

will a core i7 work with crossfire 4890? please send me a pm thanks!

[beefdog88]

yes it will if you have the right motherboard

[chambs1]

Way to show 'em, Beefdog.

[DeadFredVideo]

Phenom II + Crossfire 4890 = EPIC WIN :)

[Zedveron]

nice, what monitor and what speakers are you using?

[beefdog88]

Acer v223w Monitor and Logitech z5500 speakers
