Crysis Message Board  

Hy.
I heard that the Crysis is the most demanding game out there for now and u want to see if that's true.
I heard that Crysis needs a stronger Dual Core Processor a 2GB Ram and a Graphic Card that must be from NVidia 8 - series like 8800ultra 512MB.

Specs for now:
GeForce 7950GT 512MB
AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core Extreme 2 5200+
2GB Ram

True. A gigs is cool but not for loading time, that's what gamespot said. Strong dual core? X2 or Core 2 Duo are enough, 2.6GHz minimum. To max out you need 8800gtx, not ultra. Perhaps you still need to lower the resolution a bit.

I have 2.8 GHz but i still ha GeForce 7950GT.

Dude look at me, it's crap (the CPU is OK:
Intel C2D E4300
ECS EliteGroup P4M800PRO
1GB (512MBx2) DDR400 MHz RAM
ATI Radeon 9550 AGP 8x (give you info later)
Integrated 5.1 Surround Sound
200GB 5400RPM HDD
PCI 54Mb\s+ 7dBi Omni-Directional Antenna

My video card isn't even on the list of compatible cards! The game demo lags so bad that I can't even beat the first level (the Koreans get to shoot way before me)!

A quote that works against me and you guys- "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"... Uhh, if my video card is so bad it's only worth $10-$20, I might as well throw it away. Should I wait until prices for PCIe cards to drop, or just buy a new AGP one (I think the first on is better, but I have to replace my board)?

My specs are the requirements (I don't know which smilie to use). Don't even try using online with this configuration!

I have no comment.

Currently running:
Nvidia 7600 GS (512mb)
2.6Ghz Intel pentium 4 HT Tech
2GB Ram

And the game works just fine in low graphics mode.

I played it on my notebook
t2300e (1.66 centrino duo)
1 gb ram
x1800 mobility 256mb vram

in the lowest res and quality...and some extra cooling, but it is playable!

Any Dual-core processor seems to run the game fine.
It's the graphics card you need to worry about.
If you want eye candy you have to go with an 8800 GTX
or similar Radeon card. The only thing I've seen to run
it on very high settings with good frame rates is two
8800 GTX or Ultra cards in SLI mode.
You can get along great with 2 gigs of ram.

I recommend running it on DX9 rather than DX10. The game still looks great and you get a 30-40% boost in performance, depending on what card you are running on.
