Crysis

The game being too hard at its Very High level of detail, we benchmarked the cards without FSAA to get a more playable speed.

With the release of Crysis Crytek supported its reputation of a developer of tomorrow-oriented games it had earned with Far Cry. Crysis cannot be played at the highest level of detail on today’s single graphics cards even if you give up FSAA.

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars

The frame rate is fixed at 30fps in this game as this is the rate at which the physical model is being updated at the server. Thus, this 30fps speed is the required minimum for playing the game.

The ECS card is a mere 5% slower than the GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB. Both cards deliver high performance in this game, allowing you to play it at 1920x1200 with 4x FSAA.
