Hi All,

Below are the stats on my new PC. I am playing Crysis on very high with no anti-aliasing and it's crapping out whenever i get into combat or when moving into new areas. I've patched to the latest and the game can still be choppy.

Any help would be most appreciated!

Thanks,

Caz

I believe the latest nvidia drivers... will validate this

I just upgraded to the latest nvidia drivers and yes, I am running SLI.

Maybe I'm missing something here but for 6.5K i figured I could atleast run Crysis on very high without any issues. :-/

Try your video card manufacturer's drivers. I have an evga 8800 gt and evga's driver gives me almost universally better performance than any of nvidia/nzone's drivers.

I just have to say I got a PC hard-on looking at your stats...

BTW why didn't you go with Ultimate 64bit version. The game runs better on 64 bit version. I read an article on it a while back. Roll your drivers back then try it. put whatever drivers came with the card then try it. those cards are very new and may not have stable support yet.
