Question about 6870 and Crysis2

[mroneeyedboh]

I was playing out Crysis 2 with my 6870 and i5 2400. When playing it was pretty smooth except when I went thru the sewer and with all of the water. I noticed more lag and studder-ing ( i guess... ) It was MAJOR but I noticed the game seemed to slow down a bit when I was near the water. Im running the textures mod and the DX11 patch and all settings on ultra... Would the studder-ing I experienced be that the 6870 was maxxing out? Or what? Also temps were around 130f during gaming too, but from looking around it seemed normal.

thanks!

Dial back on the tessellation and you will see a huge change.

^+1,it eats up a lot of fps and vram too.any ways the game looks great even without tessellation off
