I guess the only way I will know is to buy the game. Crysis has two versions?
I heard Mirror's Edge might be the most graphic intense game out right now.
I can run crysis at 1920x1080 all settings very high, 4xAA @ 40fps
I ran an eVGA 9800GTX vanilla card for about 6 months...played Crysis just fine. I could play everything on "High" with 2xAA at 1680x1050 res with no issues.
crysis makes my graphics card artifact with tose settings (but at 1440x900)...
I have to bump the fan speeds to 75%+ so that I can stay at a stable 75*....
If you play Crysis, what video card are you running, what are your game settings, and how well does it run?
We ran some rather aggressive benchmarks on these cards, and for the most part they held up well. The exception, as usual, is Crysis, on which neither card was able to achieve a playable frame rate. Even if the Radeon card was faster on that test than the GeForce, it's still only hitting 20 frames per second on 1,400x960, the lowest resolution we tried. Dropping the detail level down to medium and the anti-aliasing to 2x resulted in frame rates around 35 fps, but still well below the 60 frames per second hallowed ground.
