Far cry is still one of the best looking first person shooter you will come across. It's very open world and flexible. But all this beauty does come with a cost. The game at it's maximum setting needs a very high end card and if you want to start cranking up the AA you will need to add a second card or just have a heavily overclocked enthusiast level high end card to deal with the work load at acceptable frames. In this video I will demonstrate how my Water cooled and overclocked R9 290 1220mhz on the core and 1650mhz on the memory does against Far Cry 3 ultra settings at 1920x1080 with 8xAA. Please note that you do suffer a performance hit due to recording normally in the region of 10%-15% so you can expect more performance with a similar setup. Enjoy the Video
