Crysis and HD5870 Crossfire Issues - Upgrade to gtx 580??
Hello Everyone,
Can you help with the below?
At the moment I have the system spec at the bottom of this post. When I try to run Crysis in any resolution I get a fairly stuttery performance in crossfire but when I run it on the single HD5870 (the powercolor card) it runs pretty smooth at 1920x1080 (i think thats it - I'm in work now so cant check!!), 2 x anti aliasing, all settings to high and v-sync on.
I have updated all my catalyst drivers to the latest ones and have the latest profiles and yet Crysis is still been a pain!!!. I have also removed all the drivers and used driver sweep to remove them completely before reinstalling them and still stuttery perfomance in Crysis. I know this game is a pain but surely the crossfire should work better than a single card?
It's only this game that causes me problems. All my other games including Crysis 2 and bad company 2 have no problems in crossfire at max settings.
Can anyone advise a fix or as whether its worth my while selling these carda dn purchasing a single GPU solution such as a GTX 580. Apologies for the lack of grammar here but Im typing this with my manager nearby!
Sorry if i seem slightly fixated with Crysis but its the game that got me into PC gaming building. Can't get enough of it!
SPEC
CPU AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE @ 4.0GHZ

Any help would be appreciated!!!!
