Strange Crysis Benchmark!

Hello mates

I've made two crysis benchmarks and the results were stupid.
At the very high benchmark I got 38 fps and 36 fps when bechmarking high settings?

How come :eek:

My guess is because your trying Very High on DX9, run them both on DX10 and see the difference :shrug:

You ran the "DX9 High" -test first. During the first run the textures get cached in RAM, this causes stuttering (= abysmal minimum FPS) thus the average FPS is lower than it should be. Then you ran the "DX9 Very High" which is the exact same as "DX9 High". This time no swapping occured due the earlier run and minimum FPS was normal all the time.

In order to run the real "Very High" you need to select DX10 (and use Vista).

also, one run is not enough -> do at least 3 runs to avoide caching as largon said.

IMO two runs are enough...
