Crysis Warhead

The one game that can bring all GPUs to their knees, Crysis is set to mainstream quality and benchmarked through the Frost map. We keep settings at levels low enough to ensure the mid-range cards can produce smooth frame rates.

The story in Crysis is much the same as the previous three titles. Benchmark numbers from a GTS 450 and HD 5750 are nigh-on identical. The ASUS OC pushes average frame-rates up by over 10 per cent but, in turn, is beaten by 25 per cent when compared with a GTX 460 768MB. There's only so much help pure frequencies can provide.
