Honestly this is disappointing, i awaited better results.

I think your results isn't _that_ much better than my current system in Crysis:

Could you post such complete results also from your system?
May be we can figure if there are differences for example at the minimum fps, which is the most significant number because it causes the fps lags.

OC, i get higher frames than that @ 1680x1050, all settings on High. i'd run the test for you, but i have the 7.11 driver right now and don't feel like going back to the special hotfix driver. i'm sick of changing drivers for the moment. the 7.12 driver will be out in about a week and will put all the confusion behind us. i don't even own the full version of Crysis yet, so it's not a big issue for me.

hmmm, I just don't care for ATi, never have, never will.

i didnt use the hotfix driver, i cant be bothered changing back and forth...
i game at 1680x1050 and the fps are the same, has to be a driver issue@1280x1024 with 7.11....
