Running 13.1 at the minute. Do the beta drivers make any difference?Originally Posted by King Lycan
What drivers are you running for your GPU ?
Cheers for the advice although you would definatly get more FPS with your beasty CPU! but I will try this!Originally Posted by junkerde
HEY I had the same problem. Just now I decided to test Crysis 3 again, before I had to set it to low settings on everything with 720p resoultion. I started up and changed it back to 1920x1080 and high, and the framerate was WAY BETTER than before, like it was actuallly playable now lol. Like you I was getting 20fps and below in the first mission. I don't know if this is a bug or not, but try setting all settings to low, quit crysis 3, restart your computer and set settings to high again. If I'm not mistaken someone here on OCN had the same problem, it sure fixed it for me (make sure to turn off vsync also).
Ok cool ill give the new beta drivers a go and see how they helpOriginally Posted by Kuivamaa
GCN cards like 7950 are getting a signficant boost in performance on Crysis 3 going 13.2 beta 4 and later.
My pc in my rig is a lot slower and I can play it at 1080p at high settings and MSAA x4 without problem. I don't know fps but it's playable. My video card is hd 6950 with shader unlocked and overclocked. Did you have any anti-virus installed? Try to kill all background programs?Originally Posted by Rittzy
Tried the 13.2 drivers with no significant difference apart from the fact when I turned on my PC the HDMI Sound Out option was mssing and had to reinstall the drivers to get it to show up again.... back to running 13.1 lowest settings and I can't even play some of the levels
20-30 fps is not playable imo.Originally Posted by Recursion

Ok, but it's very technical explanation. It depends on the energy grid and the AC. But 25 fps is the lower bound and 65 fps is the upper bound for the human eye. In the eye electricity is also used. Sorry about 25 fps but 65 fps should be playable.Originally Posted by AlDyer
The human eye does NOT see in frames per second, its NOT a camera and you can easily notice a HUGE difference between lets say 30- and 60 fps
Please post a pic. I wonder if a crossfire Powercolor HD 6950 is also as fast as your GTX 590?Originally Posted by Revolution996
Crysis 3.
I have a 955BE clocked to 4Ghz on my `Sig Rig` and sorry to say I am getting 70 - 140 fps during game play, my CPU tops at around 90% usage on all 4 cores and the GTX590 is holding approx 75%...all on HIGH...very playable and looks superb.
In-fact the graphics are `friggin unbelievable`...no issues AT ALL (on the latest 314.07 drivers)
I know I have a good CPU @4Ghz but have the upgrade itch and am going to go for the FX8350 next to liberate the power of the GTX590 ... my kids are all on AMD and stuff gets passed down....or...may sell this CPU to fund another.
I`ll pop an Afterburner pic up later on.
Revo.
He needs to disable every background program. Anti-Virus and so on. I bet I can make it work with your son's pc with everything max out?Originally Posted by Revolution996
And on the same note, my son has an AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+ .
And recently aquired a GTX560ti 2gb graphics card ....and he can only get 15fps with everyting on LOW !!!...unplayable, the CPU is loaded instantly and is a MASSIVE bottleneck,
Hence me going for the FX 8350 and giving him my Phenom 2.
You NEED a good CPU and GPU to get a nice experience from Crysis 3.
Revo.
