Approximate Purchase Date: End of May

Budget Range: $1000-$1500

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming

Are you buying a monitor: Yes, but you don't need to include it in the build price, this money will be used solely for the gaming rig itself. You also don't need to include the price of a keyboard/mouse.

Do you need to buy OS: Yes

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Any Canadian site or site that will ship to Canada, Newegg.ca

Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Parts Preferences: None

Overclocking: Maybe

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe

Your Monitor Resolution: Somewhere around 1920 x 1200

Additional Comments: Just want it to run Crysis 3 on Very High while being the most affordable it can be. Although if it's not attainable for my budget then the best you can do with the budget is fine. Thanks in advance.

I was able to MAX Crysis 3 with 2xSMAA @ 1080P with average FPS in the 40-50 range on an old Phenom II x6 1090t OCd to 4.0GHz, DDR3 1600 RAM and 2 x Radeon HD 7950's @ stock.

During testing, the CPU was in the 95% load range and BOTH GPUs were in the 95-99% load range. So Crysis 3 makes good use of all your system resources and is a little GPU heavy.

Crysis 3 does well on either modern AMD or Intel hardware because it is optimized well for multi-core CPUs. However, the new FX 6 core needs to run at 4.2GHz+ to = the performance of the Phenom II x6 @ 4.0 because the new architecture has lower IPC. So plan on an OC of 4.4-4.5 or better with this particular combo. Not hard to do, just clarifying to keep this as close to apples-to-apples as I can.

A single R9 290 will probably perform as well or better than the 2 7950's I OCd while I was playing with it, but use a little less power, generate a little less heat, and cose a bit less overall.

Hope that helps.

even an hd 5450 will RUN crysis 3 on max.....
it'll be a kind of walking though.....lol....

what frame rate do you consider as playable depends a lot......
if u consider 35+ as playable, then yes you can max it.......
if you consider it as 100000+ then sorry, you cant max it.....

some people consider anything above 1+ as playable...for them an hd 5450 can max it......

so maxing out a game is a very relative and individual dependant term.....
hope you got your answer....
