Crysis Warhead Hardware Performance Review
by FiXT     |     October 10, 2008

Proccesor (CPU) Comparison


Our CPU test pits popular representatives from each major CPU lineup against each other to weed out which one offers top performance. As you will note in the chart below, Warhead is unable to take full advantange of the benefits of quad core processors, which would allow the game to spread different tasks over individual cores.


The Intel CPU's have the speediest of the bunch - the E8400 - holding the crown, with the slightly slower, but quad powered Q9550 on its heels. With AMD we see the Phenom's architectural improvements provide the competitive edge over the X2 5000+ but still, a CPU's effective speed seems to be the primary factor for better performance.
