Well doing research about Crysis I came across many observations concluding that I feel this game will run really well in DX10 on a Core 2 duo, 2gig ram and a 8800GTX at a resolution of 1920x1080 with almost max settings.At E3 this year Crysis ran on the best Core 2 duo which im sure it had to be clock at 2.6Ghz, 4gig ram and a Geforce 8800GTX ultra due to they cant sacrifice a chance for even slight stutters on a E3 show giving the hype its getting in the industry.Im more then certain at E3 this year it was running at 1920x1200 due to a video showing it on a monitor which was in fact a 1920x1200 by the design and look of it.With quads booming in the market it will certainly give a huge boost in performance making to give a good performance at a res of 1920x1200 with 2gigs or more including a geforce 8800GTX card and by the looks of the video Im guessing around 30-40 fps performance lock at max settings which is incredible from the level of detail this game brings to the tables.Feel free to comment...

I doubt it will run "really" well on that resolution. The game will mostly stress the graphics card, so a dual core and 2gb of RAM along with a good 8800GTX I'd imagine would run it on the very high settings.

Yeah, but were they showing it running in DX10 at E3? I know at least all the previews before E3 that we had seen only had the game running in DX9, but I'm not sure about E3 itself. If they were then you're probably right about it running well on a system like that.

But if it wasn't running in DX10 then we still don't have any idea how well it will run.

They posted an estimate of the system requirments on their site:

Looks like it wont need a top-o-the-line rig.

That is not a crysis site. The gamespot preview said they were using an 8800GTX and 4gb of ram and the game slowed down during explosions etc and it wasn't on the highest settings. The game is not complete as yet though.

People should be worrying about running this game at high resolutions rather then low so Im 100% sure it will run at max on lower resolutions but the question is how would it run at high resolutions with current hardware.You may not get 60fps lock on max settings at high res but 30-40 fps is acceptable for the visuals this game is offering.

Most of the discussion these days is about running it maxed-out though...

If you read the new crysis intervivew on the site the develper is saying the game is running on an 8800 and with 2 gigs of ram and it was running perfect...They are making it so lower spec systems can handle it to.. My new system has sli 8800 GTS 640 mb and 4 gig of ram with vista and a quad core will see how it runs but im assumin it should run it all on max

No way you'll need 4gb Ram to max it at 1280x1024 for e.g

This is false and giving alot of people down hopes.Them monitors that Crysis were displaying on were not 1280x1024 which is 4:3.A quad core with a 8800GTX should pull this game through for high resolutions max settings.

There is no way you will need 4GB of ram for anything. 32bit operating systems cannot make use of 4gigs and I doubt this game is 64bit.

I highly doubt it ran on that resolution or will run that resolution on almost max settings.

They demoed it at E3 on an 8800GTX and said for the most part it ran smoothly on very high, which they said wasn't their highest setting.

LOL everyone seems to believe the current top dog system will max out this game. It will not. Perhaps if u go crossfire or sli you can but on a single 8800GTX from what they are saying you will not max out the game. It is not terribly far off release and they are demoing it on a notch or 2 below max and it doesn't run flawless. Sure they will probably tweak it some but i don't think they're going to get it running on max settings on 1 8800GTX without the frames being fairly low.

If you own an 8800GTX then ya ur going to have a great time but don't kid yourself your going to max it out with good frame rates.

Im gonna link you two videos and please tell me the resolutions they were running on.Also in one of the videos that include Crysis running on a quad-core you will see just what the employee mentions about the performance the only concern was the speed in which Im sure was doing 30fps lock.

Also I never mention a core 2 duo will max Crysis out rather a quad core will pull it through max settings at high resolutions.

There's new information about Crysis from Campus Party where Peter OReilly showed off the game. Ultimo Nivel site had written great and interesting articles. Seems that Crytek's title is running on PC with specs C2D 6420/ 2 GB of RAM /8800 (GTS or GTX) Windows Vista at 1024 x 768. I must enphasize the importance of framerate with settings high.

I dont read spanish and them screens are alot smaller then the screens at E3 giving both were running on vista only difference were 4 gigs of ram to 2 gigs of ram so I dont know how can it impact that much from just ram when stuff cant even excel 2 gigs.However if this is true it will be a big dissapointment for alot of people putting down alot of money on rigs to run it DX10 and getting bad performance.

The person who writes these article has built the PC than ran Crysis, but after that guys from Crytek would change something, I think so. Peter OReilly said him an important frase " if you bought 2 years ago a good PC, you'll be able to play Crysis without any problems."
