Best Graphics Cards For The Money: June '09

This month, ATI's new Radeon HD 4770 is missing in action, since online stores are not only unable to keep it in stock, but also de-listing it completely. With violent movements in pricing, though, it'd have been taken off the recommended list anyway. Read more

It was the surprise hit of E3 2006, but does the game play hold up to the graphics? Electronic Arts and Crytek treated press to a completed level of Crysis at E3 2007 as well as some new screenshots.

The A.I. reacting to situations and not pre-programmed events is good news. Sounds like the game will look great, play great, and be challenging. Hopefully when I buy it, I won't be let down.

Any word on the recommended system specs to run this monster comfortably?

I've read that what it takes to run Far Cry on Ultra (High, I suppose) is what it takes to play Crysis at Low.

September 11th, interesting launch date. I wonder why they picked such an ominous date.

So, my AMD Athlon 64 3200 @ 2.2 GHz with 2 GBs of RAM and an NVIDIA 6800 128 MB DDR AGP can handle Crysis on low? :pt1cable:

Yea, I don't know many people that like playing games at 800x600... or worse 640x480 :heink:

They say, they are using dual-core (quad-core) intel cpu, 2gb of ram, gf 8800 to play the game, but....they also said there is no currently hardware can handle the Cry Engine 2 at maximum settings for at least 2/3 years.

I imagine that if you have a god rig now, you'll be fine!

IMO rig requirement will be similar to Far Cry at its release. They will tweak enough for game to run on mediocre rigs, but probably 8800 Ultra's SLi will be required for all eye candy on max details x_X
