- Improve performance for the DirectX 9 version of Far Cry 2 on CrossFire compatible systems
- Improve performance for the DirectX 10 version of Far Cry 2 on both single and CrossFire compatible systems

Of course Ubisoft’s Dunia-powered Far Cry 2 will be officially released only next week – on the 21st in North America and the 24th in Europe, but AMD may be betting on an early leak.

The hotfix is available for download in both Windows XP (32/64bit) and Vista (32/64bit) flavors via the following links:

- Catalyst 8.10 hotfix (Windows XP 32/64bit)
- Catalyst 8.10 hotfix (Windows Vista 32/64it)

Now not many case companies can come up with case after case but coolermaster seem to be able to come up with the good time after time, they have not produced many bad cases at all, well as i am not being paid for tihs review i can however tell you that their power supplies suck ! and are likly to blow up in your face lol (read the fine print they probably explain that).

Ok ok no more cheap shots, In our quick review today we are reviewing the “Cooler Master ATCS 840” and we since we dont actually have a case here (YET, hint hint mr & mrs coolermaster) we can only go on looks & general design.

well as you can see it does uze some class, coolermaster are popular cases to build with as they are usualy very friendly to work with, aloow for great airflow which is important these days, and are very mobbable (Case modding is very popular in this day and age). The Cooler Master ATCS 840 wont make your game any more enjoyable or make far cry 2 go any faster, well we hope it doesn’t as we dont have one here (yet lol) but all in all its quite a nice case.  i just went to link you guys up to the product but it seems its not out yet so instead of deleting what i just spent 20 minutes writting i’ll leave this here and when it comes out you can say you heard it here first..

Since there is no product link on the Coolermaster official site yet we can only link you up to Tiger Direct
they do alot of work with Coolermaster and will be the first company to get there hands on it so you can check them out here:

We hold no responsibility if this case does not enhance your far cry 2 experience.

While the first shipment will for fill most current pre orders (a lot of smart people pre ordered far cry 2 very early) well it fill fill all current orders and still a few more, FarCry2.org (i.e. us) have hooked up with gamestop & as premium partners we can confirm will we be able to supply all demand. Far cry 2 orders & pre orders are the hottest thing on the Internet right now, many companies were only allocated a designated number of copies of far cry 2, and most ( we are hearing in excess of 75% of vendors wont be able to supply demand)  Anyway if your reading this and don’t have your copy yet, you can simple click a link on our main page ( FarCry2.org ) and select you far cry 2 platform / console.

Now here is some good news (as i mentioned in our previous post, this should be as bad as first expected).

Here is a quick far cry 2 test run on the following system, E7200, 2 gig 800hmz ram, nvidia 9600gt(average/budget system)

Far Cry 2 on an average system

Ok so as you can see in this far cry 2 test (beta stage test i must add) but you can clearly see that its not as demanding as first expected, and even this average test rig is good enough. (We are about to beg UBISOFT for an early copy) so that we can provide you with and accurate & detailed review shortly.

Get on with it i hear you say lol.. ok ok here is the link to the far cry 2 system requirements tool:

Far Cry 2 System Requirements Tool

Good luck with your testing of far cry 2. We do feel that come the final release of far cry 2 and maybe in future far cry 2 patch / patches that the requirements will drop a little as far cry 2 is optimised even more.

Guys we would really appreciate if after reading this and using the far cry 2 system requirements tool if you could upload a screenshot & post a link in the comments section and leave you system specs so we can get a better idea of the far cry 2 performance.

Ok well here is a brief run down of what we intent to do with this site & the features we will be implementing:

As fellow gamers we intend on setting up the largest far cry 2 community, far cry2 is going to be one kick ass game thats for sure and its about time people had a better choice of games and far cry 2 will deliver that for certain. Now over the coming weeks (but in time for the release date for far cry 2) we will be adding these features:

-Forums

-Clan-TV (much the same as our YooClips.com website, but dedicated to far cry 2 player & clans)

-Clan Website hosting

-Private / Clan servers to rent

-Game Server Tool (So you can hunt down your far cry 2 friends / clan members)

Far Cry 2 is a game that many predict will out last most others, So lets hope we can pull some people out of battlefield 2, Quake wars, TF2, call of duty world at war & all the other games people love, lets create a huge friendly far cry 2 community for all to enjoy.

Ok that’s me done for now.. again just bare with us for a week or so and we should be well on track.
