Which graphics card is best to play Crysis Maxed 1680x1050

I also don't mind overclocking

If you want to play crysis flawlessly, then you are looking to spend some serious money on a graphics card. I would recommend you look at the nVidia GTX range.
1 GTX 295 will give you very good performance in crysis but at a high cost. You could also look at using 2 GTX cards and SLI'ing them for extra performance (requires a supporting mobo).
ATI also offer similar cards.

2 gtx260 overclocked should do the trick. Oh ya hopefully you have a quad 3.0ghz+ plus 4gig+ of ram.

^Wrong again. GTX285 SLI will do better. GTX285 Tri-SLI is better but too costly and not worth it.

That graph is excluding AA and AF and therefore is not running at max.

Perhaps this will help, but it does not have GTX 295 SLI'ed, and it's Crysis: Warhead, not Crysis.

GTX295 Quad SLI = $1180 (The only card available in Newegg is $590)
GTX285 Tri-SLI = $930

And Tri-SLI scales much better than Quad SLI in most games. People don't buy a graphics card JUST for Crysis. The extra $250 is not worth it.

There are very few boards that have 4 PCI-E slots.

^No, the K9A2 by MSI and asrock x58 deluxe along with the EVGA classified support 4 cards.

hahaha, but what addict wants to play such heavy game on SUCH huge resolution and spend SUCH huge ammounts of money on a pc.. that thing of you must have become a beast, lol
