The reason the Cryengine 2 will run at better settings on worse rig compared to the UT3 engine is probably because the UT3 engine is not as optimised UT3, take the Doom3 engine vs source, imo source is a much more cinematic engine and to max it out doesnt require anywhere near the same sort of spec as the D3 engine.
imo, max settings at a reasonable resolution like 1600x1200 will require 8800GTX, any C2D, and about 2GB of ram. Bearing in mind its looking stunning now, running on this sort of rig and the engine is not fully optimised one of two things will happen, A the specs will drop a small amount or B, they have not implemented all the little graphical touches yet.
