Um... You are all mistaken...miserably mistaken... I know from first-hand experience (I have one), that my XFX 8600 GT XXX will run Crysis at 1280 x 960 all settings high except shaders and shadows at medium. The game runs very smoothly at 40-50 in outdoor enviroments, and in intense firefights it drops to 20-30 fps. Because of the blurring effect, you barely notice it because of the action going on. If I were you, I would buy the 8600. For $100 Tigerdirect.com is selling the XFX 8600 GT XXX with a free Company of Heroes: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3048552&CatId=155
Trust me. This card has amazing value. Ialso run COD4 maxed out at 1280 x 960 at a consistent 60 fps. Company of Heroes runs flawlessly (can't tell fps, fraps doesn't work.). Anyway. This card for $100 is a steal. Go for it!

I agree with this. I also have an 8600 gt and I was very surprised by its performance in Crysis.
