Unusual framerate on a 9800GT?

[Buff]

So I recently reinstalled Crysis, on the following specs:

i7 860 @ 2.8gHz
3GB DDR3 1333mHz
XFX9800GT OC'd 512MB

And on high settings with 2x AA on 1440x900 I'm getting between 25 and 33 fps. Not that I'm complaining, but I was expecting between 15 and 20fps. O_o

Turn off that AA and try running the game @1680X1050, but maybe you have to stay @1440X900. your gpu is the bottleneck as it only has 512VRAM and AA and high resolution eat a lot of Vram.

Btw. Check the following link if you are interested in tweaking the hell out of Crysis for better performance ;)

Ps. I want your cpu! ;)

Oh I'm not complaining, as I said I was expecting a lower framerate (also my max rez is 1440x900). Switching to an HD5850 soon though. :D

Might take a look at that guide later.
