what kind of computer do you need to run crysis? how much power i mean? i am thinking of picking it up i keep hearing all this good stuff about it. would a q6600 quad core with 4 gigs of pc6400 ram, some nvidia 256 mb DVI GPU and a few hard drives on raid work? the gpu i think is the only thing that really worries me.

Off topic, but get something like a Core 2 Duo, a GeForce 9600, any SATA 7200rpm hard drive, 2GB of DDR2 800 RAM, and you're set.

oh here, the card is an nvidia geforce 6800 gs. i have it on a 19 inch dell ultrasharp on DVI. dont know if that could hack the gaf if you know what i mean. iv wanted to upgrade but after getting a high def video camera, this computer, a g25 race wheel and some new ps3 games, i need to do some saving!

You might be able to play it on low settings at a low resolution. I would say wait until you get a new card. They are really cheap now since the geforce 9 series came out.

i think im just going to wait and save some cash and then just buy the biggest baddest GPU out there. otherwise ill regret it in less than a month! then again theres always the question, get one massive card or get two smaller ones and SLi them, maybe even same some money. i dont know if my new motherboard supports SLI, i would imagine it does...

You steelin' mah job. :|

@sailor:

Bad idea. Get a mid-range card now for half the price of a high end card, then get ANOTHER mid range card 6 months to a year down the line, one that will be powerful than the best card out now.

In the end you'll spend the same amount of money, but 6 months down the line you'll have a better card.

Well I would recommend getting something like an 8800gt right now for about 120-150. If too much get a 8600gt 50-100. Then when you need to upgrade in half a year to a year buy another card in that price range.
