[QUOTE="CreasianDevaili"] Just chucked a grand into my pc this month for a few upgrades. 600 for my monitor. I'd say by today's prices the pc would cost someone as a entire package just 2300usd.
As far as the 6000 pc and crysis max save for resolution and AA.. if its for workstation then I can see and understand it being worth it if you make money in that field. If its a gaming rig and you cant even manage 2560x1600 on very high with some AA then it is epic fail on many fronts. Unless its 4 years old.

My PC's specs exceed Crysis' recommended specs, so I don't know why I can't completely max it out. Anyways here's my PC's specs:
Network Gaming Card: K1 Killer NIC Card
Sound Card: Integrated Hi-Def Audio, Nvidia C55-MB
Video Cards: Dual Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB, SLI-Enabled
Physics Card: Ageia Physx PCI-Expresse X1
Processor: Pentium 4 Dual-Core 3.2GHz HSF Z9H741K011
RAM: 4GB DDR2 Low Latency PC-6400 AW108
Hard Drive: 1TB Seagate SATA 3G 7200RPM 16 MB Cache NCQ
Monitor: 22" Samsung 1680 X 1050 (2MS) 226BW
Again, I really should have no trouble maxing out Crysis, but when I put the resolution to 1680 X 1050 I can't use AA at all without it getting really choppy. Anyone know why, cause it kinda disappointed me. I'm currently running 1280 X 1040 with 8X AA.
awsome pc chester! One thing people should keep in mind is that I am guessing you have options like an unlocked prcoessor which is over $1000 by itself. You might be able to overclock this system considerably. Also low latency ram offers little advantage with intel chips. Are you running vista 64 bit? If not 4 gig of ram won't work and if you are maybe crysis has a driver issue for vista 64. The physics card was probably a waste too but I think they are really cool to have as an extra.
