Can't be anymore than 2GB.

And as far as res goes, it would appear as if you were also running Farcry in a window as you can see the task bar, desktop, etc. If the game setting is in fact 1920x1200 it is at least being scaled down to fit the window.

it looked like you had the settings turned waaaaaaaaaaaay down in the games. Look how crappy the sky looks in far cry.

The settings must be down as I know FarCry "by heart" :-)

The water looks crappy and seems like most of the details are missing cause FarCry cannot be played smoothly on a i8600 at FULL SETTINGS. That is a fact sorry.
UT on the other hand can be played smoothly with all turnt to full
