So is Crysis playable at 1920x1200 AA/AF (at least 30-40fps) on this SINGLE card as it was rumoured before?

How do you know that? OBR has said that he is disappointed about it`s performance. Then where is the truth?:confused::shrug:

PS. Sorry for double post.

both,

people just undestimate the gap between todays cards and one that'll play crysis at 16xAA 2560

1920 @ very high and no AA is AWESOME power

People are saying its both a dissapointment and improvement. Obviously, it's the fastest single GPU out there, but it still won't conquer the elusive Crysis 2560x1600 without multiple GPU's so take it for what its worth. Also, I'm hearing rumors now that in some games especially towards lower reses, the gap between say a GX2 and GTX280 won't be that big whereas at high reses (1920x1200+) you'll see it really shine. Somewhat makes sense, since those are some ridiculous specs and so the card might be well future-proofed. And that's not a bad thing - having > GX2 performance in a single GPU is quite amazing. The bigger issue to me is whether the cost and power usage is worth the performance vs. other alternatives, which there aren't many at my resolution.

Obviously it makes sense: besides Crysis, no game out there is really so demanding that the G80 GTX/Ultra and G92's cant handle at 1600x1200 and lower and the complete power of the GTX280 may not even be used at medium-range reses and lower

All this obsessive talk over Crysis numbers gives me bad images of 14 year olds with freckles sitting behind their rigs shouting out "ZOMG YOUR RIG CAN'T DO 1920 AA IN CRYSIS ZOMG !!!" - scares the crap out of me :argue:

Very True, Crysis is indeed the most demanding game around.

Im confused is the GTX280 the 9900GTX or are the 9900GTX's at totally new chip at a smaller NM coming back end of this year as someone has told me.

well yeah,
but I was assuming that the searcher isn't a complete narutard with no common sense

to restate without assuming this.
Search chinese sites, disregard any old charts/graphs

no-named poorly represented name charts and if the site has the words inquirer or fudzilla on it then ignore

use googles feature to block the fund and inq,
also vr-zone and vrzone as the (now old) vr stuff is EVERYWHERE

remember to search taiwan too ;)

and happy bench hunting

Edit: to give you a basic Idea.
Mess about with a template similar to this,
change the country and in page settings
code for the lazy - http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en..._nhi=&safe=off
