Why is my evga gtx 560 2gb superclocked (non ti) performing worse than a 9800gtx+?

there was a video on youtube where someone was getting around 60 frames playing crysis 1 on max settings, and when i tried to do the same, i got around 20 frames, can anyone explain?

More about : evga gtx 560 2gb superclocked performing worse 9800gtx

Rest of system specs, screen resolution, nVIDIA control panel settings (AA, AF, etc), area of game benchmarked...

Perhaps he toned down certain settings such as AA to quite a bit less than your settings, also, what are the full specs of your system to see if other components are the cause?

We need the CPU, RAM and resolution as well.

I wasn't actually asking about your specs - I was listing reasons for differences in performance. The CPU is the other component most likely to restrict performance, though I think most likely the difference is down to resolution, anti-aliasing and other control panel settings. They may have also benchmarked a less technically-demanding area of the game. I know from first-hand experience that a 9800GTX will struggle with Crysis 1 at high resolution and ultra. So chances are they dropped the res to 1024x768 or something and disabled AA etc.

Well it's not CPU then :-) Like I say, a 9800GTX shouldn't be performing that highly. Video creator will have dropped res and other settings way down. I'm not sure why people do that and try to mislead people. This being said, a GTX560 should be pushing a lot more than 20fps. Have you got anti-aliasing turned up really high or something?

im running at 1920x1080 and 8x anti aliasing, you are right. i looked back to the video and the title said 60 fps and 1080p "max" but was actually 1024x 768 in the description and was at 20-40 fps with only 2x anti aliasing, i did the same and got around 45-65 frames

Good stuff - you could probably even get away with 4x MSAA then. Have fun with Crysis :-)
