Crysis 1 | Strange Performance Issue

I am able to run Crysis 1 at the highest settings in most in-game locations. However, when I look out onto the mountains on the map Island the framerate drops considerably and the game stutters insanely*. I am running the game with DX9 and the 64-bit executable. Below are two screenshots - one looking away from the mountains and one looking towards them. Does anyone know what may be causing this and/or how to fix it?

Screenshot 1 (regular framerate):

Screenshot 2 (irregular framerate [fluctuates from 50-30 FPS]):

GPU - AMD HD 7950 3GB
CPU - AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz
RAM - 8GB

*This occurs on the lowest settings as well.

MSi afterburners OSD ought to give you helpful information. Thats what I'd suggest. Make sure you tick anything that seems relevant in the options menu (cpu performance, ram usage, vram usage, etc)
