Hey all,

Right now I have a 8800 gts 640. Iam thinking about getting a new ps and running 2 3870's Now my cpu is a E6850 3 Ghz oc to 3.5.

I just want to know that the problems I am having with crysis will get better with the 3870's and that even though my cpu is not $1000 quad core that my 6850 isn't a bottleneck.

i upgraded my 8800gts 640 to the 8800gts 512
if play crysis pretty well


the 3870 crossfire set up is really ncie too - i would choose the crossfire

First off, CPU bottlenecking the graphics card is pretty much a complete myth when using almost any newer (1-2 years old) dual core processor. The only time bottlenecking might occur is if you run your resolution at less than 12X10, which i imagine you do not.

Yes, crossfire with 3870s should do you wonders in Crysis.

Hey thanks guys.

I Went with 2 HIS Radeon HD 3870 ICEQ3 Turbo's and a gamestream 850. Looking forward to them

The only thing that will help Crysis is their patch and they're saying that might not help much.
