the minimum and recommended requirements,they don't say quad,they shouldn't say quad...if lower end dual cores don't do too well,i'm sure a higher end dual core will make up for the slack.
Well the recommended is dual core for Crysis. Also 1000+ bucks for a quad core...gonna be a while before thats at a decent price lol.
the qx6700 is 1000 dollars. the q6600 is 530 dollars. he said the q6600 would drop to 266. or 250. they are both quadcores...just the q6600 isnt the best.
hmmm...well thats what i think.
