    Can you set crysis 1 settings to ultra high on the m14x assuming some details are toned down (Physx, some shadows etc.) with the 1368x700 display?

    Well from this link YouTube - Alienware M14x - Crysis 2 Gameplay you showed....

    1) he's playing 1600X900 so I assume switching to 1366 X 768 will get some extra frames.
    2) Most likely he hasn't OC'ed the system which could potentially get him some better performances
    3) I've heard crysis 2 isn't as demanding as crysis 1 or crysis warhead.. so I really wanna see a crysis 1 or warhead vid
    4) It seems like Steven whatever his name is has been successful at OC the GPU substantially without overheating anything so I think this is a very good sign. I look forward to him keeping us updated on his OC and maybe even help us out :D maybe
    5) I am pretty sure that the guy from the vid is not running any optimized crysis config settings so thats probably why he's settled for medium

    I'm really looking forward to optimizing crysis 1 and crysis warhead with custom config settings and seeing how far this machined can be OC'ed.
