Results with GX2 Quad sli CPU @ 3.2 (down clocked it to get a more average user results for CPU and see if they get affected much, I'll have 3.6 done 2morrow)

Single GPU:

2008-09-22 23:08:36 - Crysis
Frames: 799 - Time: 44243ms - Avg: 36.838 - Min: 20 - Max: 46

Nvidia Recommended GPU-Setup:

2008-09-22 23:13:54 - Crysis
Frames: 2047 - Time: 46133ms - Avg: 54.372 - Min: 21 - Max: 87

Custom Quad SLI 4 GPU AFR- 2

2008-09-22 23:11:14 - Crysis
Frames: 1862 - Time: 48377ms - Avg: 62.519 - Min: 24 - Max: 91

The scaling seems to have almost doubled now that I look at it.

We'll probably see improvements with the new drivers from Nvidia and/or patch from Crytek

that last benchmark is pretty nice, can you stay around the min-24 range with 8-16x AF enabled?

16XQ killed the cards, 8x remains okay playable. 4x is very playable (excluding huge fight scenes) rofl:)

This game is very optimized, I find it quite playable at 1920 with an ATI card nonetheless

yea, it seems to run nice on really any higher-end config

I actually tried 16xQ-AA with supersampling TSAA and 16xAF

It was like, 10-25 fps *sobs*

but its fine with all the other goodies +4xAA ^^

exactly, and if I was lucky it went to 27/28 here and there but most of the time stayed around 10 fps (especially wide open areas!)

Nice results there m8. I got Quad sli yesterday and did a bench on Warhead and got a lot less FPS than you, any help would be appreciated with tips/setup etc

I did have SLI enabled in the nvidia panel and set on AFR 2.....do you have to tweak the game at all to use quad sli? Using 175.19 drivers atm.
