He mentions that he has a 680 and is running solid 60 fps.

0 day PC patch available: http://static3.cdn.ubi.com/far_cry_3/farcry3_1.01.exe
It enables DX11 for those that couldn't enable it, and more.
The benchmark in the op is wrong. This one was WITH (contrary to what is indicated) 4XMSAA.

Make no mistake it's still a very demanding game.
But is this benchmark with the patch and the new drivers?
What the hell, why is it around 30fps on a 680?
My monitor is 2560x1440 and I have a 680, I guess this means I'll get sub 30fps?
No it's not. It wasn't even the final release version they've tested.But is this benchmark with the patch and the new drivers?

All hail the new PC destroyer.

So why do they not include the 670 in that? Is that just because its in the 680 category??

Er, I made a boneheaded mistake regarding legacy concerns, and now I'm stuck with 32-bit W7 and its 3.12 GB cap.
Damn, a 690 is needed to get 60 fps? Will wait for the 700 series.

I was about to cheer until I realized my resolution is a lot higher.
We don't know what version of the game they tested. The day 1 patch notes, linked to earlier, mention performance gains in both SP and MP, so maybe performance will be even better? Also, will you be using 8x MSAA? I imagine 4x MSAA will look pretty damn good and be nearly twice as fast.
Are there cool DX11 effects.
Me too. Any idea when they are scheduled for?
Contact hardening shadows as well on "ultra" shadow setting.I've read AO, and AA are DX11 only. No other particular effects that I am aware of, but DX11 could be faster.

Look at the edges of the air conditioner, as well. It seems to handle AO differently.
It might be safe to say that. If the code is optimised then we truly do have a new PC destroyer. Move over Crysis, which was a non-optimised game anyway.
How big is the dx11 hit?
Around 10 fps. Not worth it IMO.
Not based on what I've seen. Game looks good but not better than Crysis, so if anything it makes Crysis look optimized...
Crysis 3 will probably be the next PC destroyer.
Well if my rig could run CrySis just fine on max settings, this should run as well then if it doesn't look better but it won't according to those benchmarks
edit: Rig is: i-5 750, 8Gigs of DDR3 Ram and an ATI 5850 1GB
What was/is your frame rate when you run Crysis on your rig?
Around 10 fps. Not worth it IMO.

Honestly it's been so long that i don't even remember, but what i do remember is that it ran very fluid on max res (1080X1920) back then, so it must have at LEAST been above 30 FPS or i would have noticed something...
