In-Game Tests

Crysis

With Crysis, it was only possible to proceed with the test in the Very-High configuration and no filters used, since the graphic engine on this game is very stressful to the hardware, and with high resolutions and active filters (AA4x-AF16x), cards such as the HD3850 and HD3870 have a really hard time, with many system locks throughout the tests.
