True, barely anyone could run Crysis when it launched. And here you'd need a $1200 GPU as a bare minumum to run it with all its effects, plus a near TOTL 12 core CPU. Granted the non-RT requirements aren't as mad and is playable with it turned off. |
There was no CPU on the market that could run it at 30 FPS at stock. But the Core 2 Duos could be overclocked to over 4 GHz most of the time.
Another issue back then was that the flat screen monitors of the time were terrible when you had to play below native resolution.
