I dont know, but even in DX9 your 4850 can do 7680x1600 over 30fps?

Trolling, and looking at the reviews, 2 of the big dogs scale real well if you run in the kind of rez settings that those cards are needed for.

I think he meant single monitor...not eyefinity...so yeah I'm pretty sure his 4850 can handle Crysis 2 in single monitor.

I still need to find a way to get eyefinity to work on my 2900XT!

Is it Crysis 2 engine what was Neon for Dirt?

kn00tcn · Nov 18, 2009, 05:31 PM

neon is CM's engine?

i hope crysis2 turns into what grid was after dirt (dirt was so inefficient)

badsykes · Nov 18, 2009, 05:54 PM

Ya this is what i mean..If the new engine works well on a single radeon it may be this new way..

Gets confusing but neon was i believe the dirt 1 engine, ego is the universal engine as it consists of GRID, dirt 2, and the new operation flash point.

DIRT 2 is on EGO 3rd generation engine AFAIK.
