Crysis Benchmark: Low FPS. WHY?

If you tried my Crysis benchmark you got low FPS at Very High settings. Yes, it's true. I spent much time with find the more stressed graphic settings for the benchmark. So if you set the Very High option let you remember that it's a tweaked setting so do not be surprised that you will be get 15-25 FPS on 1280x1024 (on NVIDIA 9800).

Maybe in the future I published these settings.
Oh, I forgot: DO NOT BELIEVE the big words like: "Ultra High Quality settings cfg, download it!").

Get errors because the game type is different...

I get many emails about errors as:

"Hi, I bought my game via Steam, but your benchmark isn't support it. Help me!"

Ladies and Gentlemen: I do not have money that let me buy all games on DVD and via Steam, EA, etc... This is my hobby and I honour the games developers with my money once (buy an original copy), but that's all. If it is important to you buy me a copy of this.
