Yeah it should be playable at 1440x900res (or 1280x1024) on Mainstream or Gamer with a few shader settings turned down. You want to aim for at least 30fps but expect some slow down on some action sequences. Also, have you loaded the latest driver (182.XX)?

Ye, res is too high for that video card... Crysis Warhead while being optimised somewhat over Crysis... still maxes juice on even decent cards.

I haven't played it yet but im expecting it to bring my 4850 to its knee's @ 1680 - i aint even going to try run it @ 1900 lol :(

tried 1440x900, still getting unbearable lag.. all my other games handle perfectly on full settings and on 1680x1050 :)

And yes 182.50 is installed, i'm pretty sure 8800GT SLI can handle crysis warhead on 1680x1050

Warhead does support SLI...maybe try disabling SLI to see if that's the cause.

Also, do you know what the CPU % and RAM usage is in game? while unlikely, one of these could be the bottleneck.

Not sure if this is what you're talking about but CPU is on 1% (Doesn't sound right?) and ram is 2.06GB

Edit: Hmm got windows 7 beta put on recently, and in dxdiag it says i've got DX11? lol.. maybe thats the prob?

So your running windows 7???

Does the game actually officially support it yet?

I dont think most do as its not officially released yet - add to the fact you dont have a DX11 card, DX11 cards are not due until the launch of Windows 7 officially (not the BETA)

Go back to Vista/XP IMO

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
