The Guru3D Crysis thread

any ideas why i get BSOD when i try to set very high settings for this game on vista 64 with the 169.09 drivers ?

 

Does your ram passes memtest allright?

Also, with my rig, I can't have my q6600 stable with more fsb than 411, maybe the cpu then ? U would be lucky to be stable at that fsb. Is there any volt enough for cpu, ddr, vfsb, vnb(spp), vmcp, vcore and all ?

 

Is this the only game/app which gives you BSODs?
What does it say? Any driver names, error codes could help to identify your problem faster.

One quick guess though, try disabling SLI and then setting Very High. Maybe the problem is SLI related.

 

give disable sli a try because it might in deed be the cause, but i also have Vista 64 bit and never met any probs with sli with those drivers

(Can you try the 169.13 drivers ? they are more indicated when using sli )

 

I haven't checked my steam status yet, I think I bought half life 2 epi 2 and COD4 but been fully occupied with this game and upgrading my PC only for this game...

SAD

 

Crysis has become absolutely unplayable, every 5 minutes it stops and crashes. My system specs are to the left, I have 4 gigs of swap, and its running at 800x600 on medium with post processing on low. No error, nothing, it just hangs and crashes.

I have little processes running in the background, and it happens at random. my FPS average is like 30-40, and it dips into the 20s.

 

wow, 16xAA!!! yet not a drop of af.
your lust for jaggy blood has clearly slowed your mind. :wanker:

 

ok, thx

 

you're welcome

 

but you know, I like really nice images, as it is obvious, so my game ain't only good playable fsp, strange but true

so, my wallet is the one being slaughtered

 

What you guys think

what u guys think of my config.

1920x1200 2xaa 2xaf 35fps average never goes under 20fps
Very High My own custom config for better image quality.

 

My rams are fine pass all tests. I will try to disable sli. Also im having trouble with the latest beta drivers. The 169.12 and 169.13 will give me no display in windows. Again im using vista 64

 

Try the 169.17s they work fine for me vista 64 crysis sli.

 

is there a link ?. 169.17 ???

How do u get more blur to the game? I need more blur lol..

 

drink a 1/5th of vodka, thats how.

 

After playing crysis, its safe to say that the game looks nowhere as good as the early videos.

 

well.... i wouldn't say NOWHERE near as good. they're relatively close at least. closer than some OTHER games have shown in their target render's. Still.... it's the best looking game out right now.... and it can only get better with age thanks to the idea that their engine is easily patchable, and very tweakable.

 

did you play it with dx9 or dx10. Did you have 3 sli 88ultras set verything darn thing to very high settings and AA to the max ? Also playing at the max resolution 2560 x 1600 ? then u might get close to what it looks on the videos.:banana:
