Crysis 2 DX11 Upgrade, a closer look at performance and tessellation



Crytec recently released the Ultra upgrade pack for Crysis 2 adding all the DX11 goodness with some more Bells and whistles like SSOD, Real-time reflections, Hi res textures etc........
BUT!!! yes there is a big BUT there lol..
all this comes with a humongous performance hit on our Graphic cards
ATi was anyway bad with optimizing thir drivers in time..so the first few weeks with the Ultra upgrade wasnt a good experience with ATI cards..now with the new Catalyst 11.8, i run Crysis 2 with Water and particles on Extreme and all other options on Ultra, which gives me a pretty good frame rate...installing it on my new Crucial M4 SSD added like 3-4 more fps

Found this very well detailed article on Crysis 2 DX11 upgrade and how it impacts the performance on modern video cards and it Explains all the new shiny Features Crytek put in to the game. check it out Bredas its a very good Read !!!
