I just built this computer about 1 month ago. its running windows vista 64bit. Yesterday i started getting lag in crysis really bad. It would freez up then skip then it completly froze. I had to do Ctrl+Alt+Del to get out of it. Any advice on how to fix it. I just put the newest drivers on my GPU last night.

CPU= Intel I7 920
Gpu=XFX 4890
RAM= Corsair Dominator 6GB DDR3
Hard drive= Western digital Caviar balck 1TB

You know that Crysis is extremely GPU intensive, you shouldn't set it to high settings. Even two years from then high end graphics cards like yours are still struggling to power that game because it is so advanced. Don't take offense if I don't respond for a few hours I need to go out to take care of something.

Oh, yeh that should be working fine. I play at 1680x1050, All settings on ultra High, 4xx AA on a 4870 1gb.

Crysis has a well known problem where it run's cards in Idle ATI speed step speeds. Happened to Me, and to my brother's friend. Try restarting Crysis. If that doesn't work, you may have to reinstall it,.

heyy sry man i was busy for a while. i got it taken care of it. what happened is i didn't uninstall the old drivers before updating them so they weren't working right. i installed a program called drive sweeper. it worked and i installed the newest drivers. works great now. Yes i am on the carrier thats where all my problems started. The reson i have all my graphics turned down is because my monitor isn't very good right now i havn't got my new one yet. can i max everything out with my graphic card?
 


Nothing slower than the 5850 comes CLOSE to handling Cry engine 2 maxed out at high res. The 5970 is the only card that handles it well.
 


Dude, Crysis is an awesoem game. Do you even have it? Or are you just buthurt that whatever crap pc you have can't run it well?
 
The graphics of Crysis are overrated. Any good/modern game can have the same graphics if you just turn up AA and AF in CCC. I was playing Oblivion the other day, a 2006 game, and I've amxed all the graphics and 24AA 16AF and it looks better that Crysis ( At leaste better than I can make Crysis look). Same thing with MW2. And plsu, I get like 60 frames in Oblivion/MW2, and like 20-30 in Crysis warhead.

The only reason ppl consider Crysis graphics good, Is bueacuse, the max settings that can be enbaled in game look better the in game settigns of other games, but CCC can fix that...

I agree i think crysis is a great game. i only have everything turned down because i don't have a 1080p monitor. So once i get my new monitor can i play it at 1080p and everything maxed bacuase some of you are saying yes and some are saying no. one say the 4890 is a powerfull card and some say only the 5970 can handle it well.
