    14 FPS.... i think he might be suffering from powerplay problems, instead of 16x its 1x.

    i get like 25-45 fps in crysis

    maybe he has 4x AA on, im not sure

    My take on this

    *WHY THE F...HAS THE OWNER TURNED OFF VIDEO COMMENTING!*

    But yeah, i'd bet on the bus speed problems.

    He has gamer settings on Crysis warhead.
    And yes, the performance is nowhere near of the one I'm getting from my lovely GX640 :)

    All gamer setings, Native resolution: 27 fps (cannot remember about AA now:/ )
    All gamer settings + Enthusiast Textures, Shaders, Effects, Postprocessing on same resolution yields 23-25 fps depending on the action intensity.

    Max temp after playing crysis warhead for few hours is 87 C. Yet very much depends on ambient temperature. It's rainy and cool nowadays in Prague, I have room windows open so ambient is around 18-19 C.

    Anyway, I find these settings more than enough for good playing experience. Hey, I even played Crysis on my old LG lappy with mobility Radeon X1600 on medium to low settings and resolution :)
