Thats the only thing that may vary in our argument/discussion here.
To me, the game runs and looks flawless on max settings. Is my FPS sky high? I don’t know, nor do I care. All I know is the game runs the way it is intended to (meaning no skipping, no drawing for seconds at a time, etc.)
And I don’t have GTAIV. I have it for the XBox 360 so I won’t be able to test that.
I will test COD 4 (Modern Warfare) and Crysis (I have both - I’ll only install one of them - which one do you want me to test) though on full settings and report back. Again, I haven’t played the game(s) since they first came out, but I’m pretty sure/confident that I did run them on max settings with no issues. I’m so sure, I’m willing to make video lol.
