@ Strategyking92: More importantly, what's your graphics card?

According to Crytek, the game can run at High settings at 30 to 35 FPS on a $620 PC. The resolution wasn't indicated though.

Didn't they say $400 dollars PC?

Strategyking You may be able to buy a new gpu that could run it for a cheap price. The 8600Gt could probably run it at medium settings 30-40 fps. What cpu do you have though? Also I would recommend getting another GB of ram.

That's 400 euro you mean. It's roughly $620 US.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

€400 = $400, as it always been. The exchange rate fluctuations do not affect the pricing of the hardware or the software.

Crytek showed to IGN that Crysis Warhead was able to run High Settings on a PC with only a Geforce 8600GT. It seems the engine is truly optimized now.

On the G4 hands on footage, the Crytek producer said they gave the R&D guys a $600 machine and they had to make sure "it runs well on this machine".

That's because some "reporters" ignorantly used the current exchange rate, and came up as $620. Thing is, a €400 PC in Europe is the exact same as $400 PC in US, just like a Wii is €250/$250, an HD Console game is €60/$60, etc...

 

EDIT: a few months ago, someone built a $500 PC (w/ 8800GT) that was able to run the original Crysis on High Settings. Just for a better comparison.
