Crysis: Warhead - AMD Radeon R9 285 Review: Feat. Sapphire R9 285 Dual-X OC

Crysis: Warhead

Up next is our legacy title for 2014, Crysis: Warhead. The stand-alone expansion to 2007’s Crysis, at over 5 years old Crysis: Warhead can still beat most systems down. Crysis was intended to be future-looking as far as performance and visual quality goes, and it has clearly achieved that. We’ve only finally reached the point where single-GPU cards have come out that can hit 60fps at 1920 with 4xAA, never mind 2560 and beyond.

Crysis Warhead is one of the few cases where R9 285 tends to regress, with the R9 280 leading the R9 285 by around 5% at our highest settings. Interestingly, the tables turn at the lower quality settings and R9 285 regains the lead, but overall this is mostly a wash.
