Sorry bout taking the glory off of Crysis 2 for a second people, but lately, Ive been fritzing over how my cards will perform on C2, so Ive been doing countless benchmark tests on Crysis 1, Frames arn't an issue, really, i get around 60fps on very high, but.......... i was going over this and i found something that completely bothered me....... i turned on the 64 bit version, and i would notice almost a 10fps drop? around 7-8 to be exact, so is this becuase my processrer..... or is it just Crysis acting weird? For some reason, today was my first time running 64 bit on the benchmark test..... and another question..... what is going into working the extra 10fps? am i suppose to see a difference?

Not being a troll here just showing specs to help resolve my issue.

Its not your hardware, its the game itself. Crysis was never really optimized to run on 64-bit and it was only added later in a patch. There is no actual difference in graphics or capability - but supposedly 64-bit should in theory take more advantage of your hardware and net more fps.

Just use whichever bit version gets you a higher framerate.

Where can i find this patch? Do they have it for the DVD version? Like you answered, yes 32bit gives me more frames, and im happy with what im getting, just felt maybe i could get it working on 64 bit without the severe frame rate cuts.

If your running 64-bit version then it should already be patched. A 64-bit version didn't even exist until after the game was released I think.

Actually, when i try an run the 64 Bit, the game crashes, i was using the benchmark tool, when i came across this issue. I could never successfully launch the 64bit version.

Hmm.. Are you patched to version 1.2.1.? That is the latest Crysis patch and you should be able to find it either here or at CryMod.com...

Download and install the 1.2. patch first and then download and install the 1.2.1. Hotfix and you should be good to go.
