PowerColor R9 290X PCS+ Review

Crysis 3

If ever a title demolished the goodwill that a predecessor had built up then, just behind Deus Ex, Crysis 3 would be it. Crysis Warhead was eventually proven to be so unoptimised that even the best hardware couldn’t run it properly. Then Crysis 2 appeared and, even with the HD Texture pack, ran smoothly. Crysis 3 has gone the other way again, refusing to play ball on even the most outrageous setups. It’s smooth enough and the PCS+ does well. Just.. c’mon Crytek.
