4. Benchmark rules
There are two settings to be used:
1. Meant for XP machines, Vista+ machines with DX9 only graphics card, slower machines. Leave everything at default and make sure that:
*Needs .Net framework 3.5
Resolution = 1280 x 1024
Overall quality = High (Windows XP) or Very High (Vista+ and DX9 option)
Timedemo = benchmark_gpu
DX9
It should look like this:
2. Meant for Vista+ machines. Basically, if your machine can run Crysis in DX10 mode, use this setting. Leave everything at default and make sure that:
Resolution = 1920 x 1080
Overall quality = Very High
Timedemo = benchmark_gpu
DX10
It should look like this:
3. Meant for the slowest machines able to run Crysis. Low settings because of the length of time it takes to complete otherwuse. Leave everything at default and make sure that:
Resolution = 800 x 600
Overall quality = Low
Timedemo = benchmark_gpu
DX9
It should look like this:
5. Submission rules
Screenshot with:
- Two instances of CPU-Z, showing processor and memory
- GPU-Z
- Crysis Benchmark Tool result
- Post anything that you feel could be of interest in your message!
Notes:
- Have fun!
- Anything goes! OC, UC, whatever
- Under XP .Net framework 3.5 is required
- Leave 32 bit mode. 64 bit mode, for some reason, takes you to the introduction
- Leave screenshots at full size. You can just zoom out using CTRL + mouse wheel, or right click > Open image in new tab
- Added a third setting for really slow machines. 800 x 600, Low details and DX9. Otherwise it just take too long
- Noticed that under Windows XP, you can only select high,
- System requirements stolen from Steam:
