Can the 8800ULTRA MAX crysis out in DX10 with 4XAA??

I am thinking of getting the 8800GT 512MB but I thought that wouldn't handle crysis max out as everytime I crank 4XAA on 8800GTS 320MB , it start lagging like hell and I am only playing at a resolution of 1280x1024. My other specs are 4GIGS DDR2RAM, 500GB HDD and E6600 2.4ghz. I doubt the rest of my specs are the issue. I also updated to the latest driver.

So does anyone know wether the 8800ULTRA would max out this game with 4XAA in DX10?

first off laggin is when your internet is slowing down your game play.

my 8800gts 320mb plays crysis demo at 1680x1050 at 30 fps which is playable. so i would assume an Ultra can handle that game on your res.

Hey bud, lagging can also mean a drop in frames per second. Hence the audio is farther ahead of the video because the video is lagging.

Definition of lag: to fail to maintain a desired pace or to keep up; fall or stay behind (dictionary.com)

Maxed out as in everything on "Very High"? Don't count on it. I have a 8800GTX and can do it but not smooth enough for me to consider playable. All on high with 16x runs smooth though and looks fine to me.

So would the next generation 9800GTX able to max it out then?

8800 Ultra is hardly any quicker than GTX.

and lag can mean juddery, i take it alot of people dont know the definition of the word.. since they only hear it online :roll:

No, no single card on the market can max out crysis in DX10 at a decent resolution with 4xAA with playable frame rates, dont belive it if someone tells you otherwise.

Look at that, 1024 * 768 with 4xAA and the GTX is only getting 23 fps average. And the Ultra isnt that much faster so its not going to improve much, especially at higher resolutions.

He didn't mean it's technically incorrect to refer to slowdown as lag. It's just that it's generally accepted by many that lag should refer to problems with smoothness of gameplay due to ping issues in games, while slowdown should refer to your framerate dropping. Otherwise, you may not know whether someone is actually referring to framerate or ping problems. Furthermore, there's the occasional extreme ignorant who doesn't even realize that there's a difference between framerate lag and internet connection lag, all they see is that the gameplay isn't smooth and think "OMG LAG!" There would be less of this if it were made more of a standard to refer to one as one thing (slowdown) and the other as another thing (lag).

Why care about Crysis only?? The card can max UTIII, CoD4 and alot of upcoming games... PullTheTricker

He doesn't need the 8800GTX Ultra, since my GTS 640MB can max those games out at 1680x1050 with frames ranging from 45-60. Also, what about two 8800 Ultra Black Pearl Edition's in SLi?
