    you mean why is your Crysis Benchmark score higher than your fps in game? well, for one, the benchmark has fixed settings, while you probably have different settings in game, which can mean more work for GPU+CPU, which translates to less fps. beyond that, benchmarks are supposed to get high scores so you have more bragging rights ;)

    All my setting are the same.
    But I get at least 10 fps more in the benchmark.

    hmm...the gameplay in a game is not suppose to directly equal your benchmark scores. wHEN YOU PLAY CRYSIS YOUR not simply running through the island. your shotting and jumping and making quick turns. Just download CCC and install lvl 3 or 4 or make your own CFG for crysis.

    I did the CPU benchmark and it was still higher then when I was doing nothing in that same area.

    THE LINK TO IT IS http://files.filefront.com/CUDAATS+CCC+221/;11304950;/fileinfo.html

    HOPE YOU LIKE IT

    YOU WILL GET 30FPS WITH THE CCC LVL 3, if your OCing us lvl 4, MOD AT NATIVE RES ON THE BENCHMARK...BUT I THINK IN GAMEPLAY IT WILL BE LIKE 25.

    if you just got your 6860fx and this is your first play through crysis then the game will run better because that was the case with my 6860, i ran the game all high native res then after having it for a while the game started to run not as well, its a CryEngine2 problem.

    When you benchmark crysis..there is a bug. You have to first enter the Crysis game and make sure all of the settings in the game are loaded..and also match the settings for the benchmark program(assuming you're using the GUI benchmark). Meaning, if you run a benchmark @ 1280x1024 all HIGH settings.. then you gotta first open crysis and make sure the video settings are also 1280x1024 all HIGH.. And also make sure you choose full-screen or not.. Otherwise, you can cheat the benchmark program. I was pulling 35-40 FPS @ 1920.1200 All High and fullscreen with the 7811.. Until I was informed that was not possible. And then, johnksss discovered the glitch. My FPS was a lot closer to 18 FPS avg. :)
