The EA Store website has revealed what is most likely the official minimum requirements for Crysis. Those with the beta who have hunted around in the games install directory probably would have found a hint towards these specs also. Without further adieu, I give you the minimum Crysis requirements...
CPU: Intel P4 2.8Ghz or AMD equivalent
RAM: 1GB
Video Card: 6800GT (256mb) or ATI/AMD Radeon 9800 Pro (256mb)
HDD Space: 16GB
OS: Microsoft Windows [XP and Vista I imagine]
Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible


I would have originally thought that such news would have been published in an official press release. I'm guessing that the EA Store website would have received an internal announcement prior to the official press release. Stay tuned for updates, and also keep in mind that these may not be the official minimum requirements. I'm currently waiting for confirmation.

But who would want to play at minimum settings at low res? I don't get it, what's the point, you may as well buy a PSP.

Hey! I already own a PSP!!
Hehe, just kidding! I guess my 7800GTX won't have any problems at 1024x768 with all medium (My CPU kinda sucks a$$ though), will it?

Crysis would crawl on that system... Would not be worth playing probably.

probably a 7800/900

I am currently running AMD 3500 (s939), 1gb PC3200 corsair, 7600GT.

I really want to play crysis, while I would love eye candy I cannot upgrade my pc. Do you think I would be able to play on low settings?

PS. If anyone have an old AMD x2 4200 (s939) or better & another 1gb or ram I would gladly take that off your hands!!

...Runs excellent with my setup and I dont even have a C2D! all high settings at 1920 x 1200!

X2 6000+ at 3.2 Ghz
EVGA 8800 GTS 640 Mb at 550/1700
2 Gb Gskill DDR2
WD Raptors 150 gb x 2 on Win XP
XFI ExtremeGamer sound
ThermalTake Toughpower 750 Ps
Gateway 24" 1920 x 1200 Panel DVI-D
3 x Sata DVD-RW Burners
Antec Case 5 fans
Zalman 9500 CPU Cooler

Average Fps is 40 on all high settings as shown above using Fraps with latest Nvidia Driver

These aren't the final system requirements, according to Crytek. It seems that they were posted 'accidently'.

Hatman: Crysis will have absolutely no support for Ageia Physx.

soldier37: You serious? Everything high at 1920x1200 on you system? God I hope that you aren't kidding, cause that's the res I want to play it at. If Crysis really does run that well, then the programmers at Crytek are gods, considering how amazing it looks.

BTW, does it go higher than 'High'?

Ahhh I remember when some of the best computer games were just words with no graphics at all.......remember Zork.....Adventure....Pirates Cove....etc......we have come a long way since then....I could run them all on my old Commodore Vic-20. ;-P

I remember after loading you usually had to type a run command of some kind. Same with the commodore 64 (the best selling computer of all time)

alright....hand over the wallpaper

Just how many DVD's are they shipping this on?

16 Gb is pretty much unprecedented, isn't it? What's the footprint of FSX with those high-res map-expansions?

U dont have a C2D but u have a very nice AMD CPU ,

The beta is under NDA as far as I know.

But EA being EA, they will prbably try and sue his azz off Not that it will get them very far.

Why do you have a grenade on your desk ? ? ? ? ? ?

^^ Resolution? OS? DX version?

Same thing to soldier37, which OS and DX version are you playing at?

Please tell me this is a joke!? Either that or your system is poorly configured, running drivers off the disc, and/or bogged down with bloatware? If your's performs that poorly, My FX-55 8800GTS 320MB would be worthless on my 22" LCD.

While atomicWAR's results appear more realistic, I hope they are wrong. After all, Cevat Yerli did say that a 8800GTS should be able to play Crysis at 1280x1024 High. I don't know what to think anymore.

I think though the Nv FX 5900 XT is a whole generation behind the 9800 Pro. The line just had to be drawn someplace. Just thinking out loud.

ok, own up, why is that grenade on the desk? its next to the screen and kind of hard to make out but its defintiltly there

That doesn't change the fact that the 6800GT is about 2x as fast as the 9800XT, so the 9800 Pro can't come close. My guess is it has to do more with amount of video memory instead of actual GPU power.

GOD DAMNIT!
