None, people need to forget about this game for like 2-3 years.

Well, the game is very poorly optimized, so it kills most cards, if not all. ATI's 4870 runs pretty well though. You should check out some benchmarks for it.

280GTX . but there is rumour of 300GTX By next Year with 2x power of 280GTX 2GB memory GDDR5 not confirmed but so was 280GTX when before confirmed and it appear the spec are just being as it said . why not 2GB ? if qimonda as announced official next year 2GB chip are gonna be made and supposedly less Expensive then GDDR3 modules & GDDR4 was a rip off and not good

for have nice performances all crisis player that spend less then 500$ of video card must play 1280x1024 for all very high
for 1000$ Expensiveness and nice fps. 1920x1200 & 1600x1200 is a possible option for 1400$ buyer aka 3 280gTX
1920x1200 50fps+ 2500x1600 30fps. (note 2500x1600 is only used by 1.0% of gamer too expensive) and horse power for it
it like the we won't get any thing of 2500x1600 . crysis all very high before 2009.
if game wasn't that Hungary for video game id get a 2500x1600 but instead il have to stick with a 1920x1200 it sad :P
it still fell nice XD 1080p is awesome.

Fastest right now is the GTX 280, but I think at higher resolutions the 9800 GX2 actually beats it.

in singlle yes Vs Sli nope. >> not far behindQuad sli Vs 280GTX sli
it so expensive but less then dell :) i shown my friend here. in canada & usa. 25$US = 2GB 800mhz
dell = 200$ for 2gb 667mhz ? they are trying to do the same stuff as the trick in the show called the hooker
you take 1$ product from garage sale and you put fake writing of celebrity star : with a special trick
then you sell them 200$

Your going to let the settings of an overhyped, poorly optimized $30 benchmark determine the status of your computer ? :|

An 8800GT or HD4850 can maximize all settings on the game up to 1680x1050 sans AA and run very well on fps.

Since AA is nigh irrelevant at high resolutions like that it is quite safe to say that even a sub $200 video card can max the game.

errrrrrrrrrr.......... no.
I play at 1920x1200 and AA is absolutly needed, I don't think we even have monitors available that run at a resolution where AA isn't needed. And an 8800gt and 4850 has NO chance at playing at very high at 1680x1050 with good fps.



That is all very high with no AA or even AF
You will definetly need a 9800gx2 or gtx280 to get crysis on very high... just.

Again still no AA so i wouldnt call that maxing it and at 1920x1200 the gtx 280 gets 32fps and the 9800gx2 gets 35fps. Pretty poor. crysis warhead promises to run better.





I think there is no point in spending that much money to try and max just one game however.

man have the nvidia fanboys come out of hiding from since the realease of the 4800 series? anyways, the HD 4870x2 is coming out later this month i think and i can easily say that it WILL BE THE BEST CARD ON THE MARKET PERIOD. and don't throw that much money away on a single benchmark. get yourself a 4850 or 8800gt sli and you can get good frames at 1680x1050.
