the one he listed can play crysis on high graphically, and the cpu settings on medium(physics and such) |
My specs mock his, and I can barely play Cryis Warhead at gamer (equivalent to high in Crysis 1)settings. My specs are 9800GTX+, Q6600 (quad core Intel, at leat 8-10 times as fast as his CPU if not more), 4GB RAM etc, and at 1680X1050 (and I have to use DX9 which runs slightly better) I get 29 FPS average in Crysis warhead with all gamer settings. Although Warhead runs even worse than regular Crysis.
His CPU would be particularly a problem..AMD X2's are rapidly becoming outdated..i'd try to get a cheap Intel and overclock it. Drop the $15 budgeted for a heatsink, retail CPU's come with a good HS anyway.
