512mb 8800GT SLI

Yeah it should be playable at 1440x900res (or 1280x1024) on Mainstream or Gamer with a few shader settings turned down. You want to aim for at least 30fps but expect some slow down on some action sequences. Also, have you loaded the latest driver (182.XX)?

Ye, res is too high for that video card... Crysis Warhead while being optimised somewhat over Crysis... still maxes juice on even decent cards.

I haven't played it yet but im expecting it to bring my 4850 to its knee's @ 1680 - i aint even going to try run it @ 1900 lol :(

tried 1440x900, still getting unbearable lag.. all my other games handle perfectly on full settings and on 1680x1050 :)

And yes 182.50 is installed, i'm pretty sure 8800GT SLI can handle crysis warhead on 1680x1050

Warhead does support SLI...maybe try disabling SLI to see if that's the cause.

Also, do you know what the CPU % and RAM usage is in game? while unlikely, one of these could be the bottleneck.

Not sure if this is what you're talking about but CPU is on 1% (Doesn't sound right?) and ram is 2.06GB

Edit: Hmm got windows 7 beta put on recently, and in dxdiag it says i've got DX11? lol.. maybe thats the prob?

So your running windows 7???

Does the game actually officially support it yet?

I dont think most do as its not officially released yet - add to the fact you dont have a DX11 card, DX11 cards are not due until the launch of Windows 7 officially (not the BETA)

Go back to Vista/XP IMO

    • As I wait for parts to be delivered, I have managed to procure via a contact a R32 Nistune ECU......for now I just want to monitor what the car is doing but eventually.......who knows where we go 😂
    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
