i belive it will, if i remember right crysis requires 7600 or higher

buffaloclone · « **Reply #2 on:** December 22, 2007, 09:37:00 PM »

cool. i'm running out of cash on my computer project

Tec_ · « **Reply #3 on:** December 22, 2007, 09:42:59 PM »

don't take my word for it, i don't know for sure. im going to be running a 8800 GTS, it came with crysis so im fine.

buffaloclone · « **Reply #4 on:** December 22, 2007, 09:49:54 PM »

lol, anyone else? oh and could i run 2 screens with it?

edit: oh wait dont i need more graphic memory

Yes you can run crysis on that. you can run 2 screens of that too. with that card you don't have a problem. and as long as since you will be getting at least 1 GB of ram, you should have more than enough for the min.

It will almost definitely be fine...although don't try and put it up to "Very High" in the detail etc settings. Some guy built a Super PC just for playing Crysis and it had a 3 card SLI setup, 1200W PSU, Quad Core CPU, copious quantities of RAM and he could still only get about 25-30 FPS!!!

MattZani · « **Reply #7 on:** December 23, 2007, 08:18:31 AM »

Yeah, that PC will be running at the VERY LOW Settings, an 8800GT or 3850 is medium - medium high, and an 3870 is high, but nothing can reach VERY HIGH

lol triple sli 8800gtx

noah03ark · « **Reply #9 on:** December 23, 2007, 09:43:10 AM »

yeah...but i gota 8600m gt, and it runs great

for one because i got this mod that changes some config settings so it looks good and runs better...and it works!

though i believe it could be faster because i have another mod that allows 'DX10 only' features working wtih my DX9...those i think slow it a tiny tiny bit...
but if you get the 'lexus silentium' (the configuration mod to make it run better) with that card and enough ram it should run rather well

nivida makes that board

Maybe if you only get 3 Sli 8800 Ultras, water cool them, overclock them all so much then get a quad core extreme and do the same with that, then you will reach the max settings.

noah03ark · « **Reply #12 on:** December 23, 2007, 03:08:43 PM »

actually i read somewhere that no commercial pc's have enough good specs n' whatnot to display very high settings at a remotely reasonable framerate...

its greyed out..so im guessing if it wasnt and it was applied, then you'd get like..hmm....2 fps

MattZani · « **Reply #13 on:** December 23, 2007, 04:07:23 PM »

yep, Crysis has made the decision that it would be completely unplayable

Tec_ · « **Reply #14 on:** December 23, 2007, 05:31:23 PM »

that with 3 8800's in SLI will run crysis with out breaking a sweat

would this be much better?

i believe it would, but you might want to see what others have to say

MattZani · « **Reply #17 on:** December 23, 2007, 11:35:21 PM »

Hell yeah, the 8800 GT is a nice card, and XFX are a good brand.

phenomenal · « **Reply #18 on:** December 25, 2007, 02:47:05 AM »

Also a 8800GTS is slightly better than a 8800GT by like 5%, but the advantage of the 8800GT is that its cheaper and it only takes one slot, so with the 780i motherboard, if 8800GT supports tri sli, then put 3 8800Gts and you still have space for sound cards etc

MattZani · « **Reply #19 on:** December 25, 2007, 03:06:28 AM »

Yeah, 5% performance boost, 10% Price boost.

A Tiny bit of OC'ing will get you to GTS speeds.

although as far as i know, i cannot find any 8800 gt water blocks, but if you overclock the hell out of it, you might be seeing speeds just under 8800 gtx

MattZani · « **Reply #21 on:** December 25, 2007, 11:06:44 AM »

you wouldnt, its got less pipes and less stock clocked ram, so it would never reach GTX Speeds, a GTS May with Watercooling, as its similar to the GTX

whats the point of that? its like making a game for a console that doesnt exist

MattZani · « **Reply #23 on:** December 26, 2007, 03:06:08 AM »

Because the hardware is no where near good enough.

If you have an 8800 series, it will allow you to run at very high, but it will be unplayable. The Card Noah is using isnt powerful enough to even render the image quality on Very High, and all you will get is errors, so its greyed out.

Then how do crytek test it if no hardware is good enough? unless nvidia let them have a 9800ultra...

MattZani · « **Reply #25 on:** December 26, 2007, 03:23:33 AM »

The Graphics cards designed for Art and Other Rendering, the Nvidia FX Series, would be just able to play it with a little jump.

so very true :'(
but with a few choices and configuration mods (like one allowing cool dx10 features, like the cool shadow lines from the sun or moon's direction) it will still look great and run great...so the cardthis guy wants i would say can do the job, if he makes good enough graphic configuration choices

chuck555 · « **Reply #27 on:** December 26, 2007, 05:06:33 PM »

I would go with something in the 8000's like 8600 or 88000

noah03ark · « **Reply #28 on:** December 26, 2007, 06:09:50 PM »

wouldn't we all XD

yeah i got an 8600 and again, runs rather well..

psp339 · « **Reply #29 on:** December 26, 2007, 06:16:12 PM »

I have a 8600GTS 512MB. I can run crysis on all low settings. Its very laggy and slow because I am running a Pentium Dand only 1GB of ram.
