Title: Crysis and DX10 : benchmarks?
Description: Hardspell has published the first benchmarks of Crysis with DirectX 10 and the Forceware 100.30 that were installed on demonstration computers at CES. Even if the figures published aren't really encouraging and correspond to our information, they need to be taken with circumspection as they come from the beta version of a graphic engine that exploits a GPU using the beta version of the drivers.

Indeed, the current DirectX 10 drivers (the 100.30 were released mid-December) aren't yet optimised because of the lack of games capable of using them. Their first objective is to bring (or at least try to) bring a stable support of the new API to developers.

In other words, these figures aren't really meaningful even if they make it possible to set the erroneous figures circulating about the performances of Crysis in DirectX 10 right. Crytek, Microsoft and Nvidia have used the confusion surrounding the demonstration of Crysis and let everyone believe that it was the DirectX 10 version instead of the DirectX 9 that was used most of the time.
