New GPU, New Benchmarks!

[FastRedPonyCar]

Thanks I'll give it a shot in a sec.


Here's the new config. It's averaging around 40fps avg on the GPU benchmark @ 1920X1200 with no AA.

Drop the shadow texture size down to 1024 if you need an extra 7 or so FPS. Turn off POM if you want another 8 or 9 fps.


There is still some object pop up here and there but nothing worse than the rest of the high quality configs out there (as far as I can tell)


Give feedback if you can on what can/needs to be changed.

Crysis is still by far the best looking game out there....period....IMHO. Warhead plays great on my 5870 @ 1920x1200 8AA and looks simply awesome. No other game I've played comes close, although BFBC2 looks great also.

Where do I need to put this file?

Thanks.
Btw, what the POM setting do?

[FastRedPonyCar]

Parralax occlusion mapping. It's what makes the stones on the ground texures and snow, tire tracks in the dirt, etc go from a flat texture to a 3D raised texture.

IMO a 216gtx or higher can pull it off depending on the resolution you use but it eat up a good 10~12 fps on my GTX275.
