1st level of Crysis didnt noticed any stutering at all in Crossfire mode , however in last level i noticed few breaks/stuttering (example : when runing down the stairs inside the ship or passing the ship doors ) !

Beside the first and last Crysis levels i didnt tested any other levels yet !

Hi , thnks!!


High temp because the FAN Speed @ Auto = only ~20% - 30% !

when i tested the cards there was no FAN Fix yet !!


now with the FAN FIX you can get much Lower Temps (depends on the fan speed you choose/set) :up:


regards

another great and informative review. Thanks.

Good work man!

Great work, thanks :up:
