No, this rig did not cost 20.000$ and I never said so. Read again, this was an insane computer (the story is 8-9 months old as well, the newest cards were not available in SLI) with GPU's worth over 1800$ (at the time) but it was not even close to doing the job. Most PC geeks and hardware experts agree that there is no hardware, regardless of price, available commercially that will run Crysis absolutely maxed out. Crossfire 4870 won't help much since it is not the overall tech req's that are hogging the resources, it is the programming/optimization and this is (again) the basis of the entire situation and my whole point.
Crytek are sloppy at optimizing (like Rockstar are poor at overall programming) and that is why this game is causing such a headache. UT3 easily looks as good as Crysis but requires only a fraction of the omph to run perfectly because (yet again) the programming and optimization is miles better than on Crysis.
