either a top am2 or a top dual core platform will do the job, cpu wise.

check that wording (english language is such a b***h!) It should say, "...top AM2 or top Core 2 Duo platform..." or similar

US$300 is my intended budget for such a card: I targeting the GeForce 7950. Eye candy IWMC!!

done sign up on on amazon for e-mail notification when the game becomes available...

eh fellas things not looking so bright for the console users read that:
http://www.crysis-online.com/Articles/crysis-on-consoles-the-facts-of-the-matter.php

it's a long read but in short crytek wants to make the greatest fps ever and they dont want to defame the company by making a substandard port to the consoles.. and i quote:
"First of all, Crysis could be ported to consoles. It's only a matter of working out how many sacrifices would need to be made to make that achievable. But if Crytek can't reach a similar quality bar as they can with the PC version of Crysis, then it's not going to happen. If Crytek still wanted to make a game for the consoles, then they'd make a new game designed specifically for the consoles. Game ports have never really worked well. Games should either be designed for the PC, or consoles; not both. It's rare to have both the PC and console version of a game become successful."

i'm not yet prepared but i am sure as hell on my way there,
Radeon x1950xt(now up for sale to facilitate the purchase of an 8800\r600)
2GB ddr533
Athlon 64x2 3800+
MSI K9N SLI Platinum edition

only problem now is my hard drive full of anime and i have no blanks.....

A 200GB hard drive is about TT$600 if you look hard enough.. hopefully you can pelt out the $$ for the while..

Well I am sorry for the console guys. For now it doh bother me: the only console I EVER owned was the Original NES. Crysis for PC, ah comin!!!

'not yet prepared'?

I disagree. That videocard will play Crysis very comfortably.

While I do agree that the game will look its very best using the 8800/R600,
it makes little sense spending all that money unless you going DX10 (read: Vista) one time.
In case yuh wondering, thats a FURTHER $2400 TT you will have to put out eh (in addition to the $3600 TT for the 8800).

In my opinion, not worth it for just a single game.

Crysis expected mid 2007

CES 007 If not later, CEO says

By Fuad Abazovic in Las Vegas: Wednesday 10 January 2007, 11:32
Click here
WE HAD the chance to talk to CEO of Crytek, an old friend called Cevet Yarill here in Vegas.

This lad told us that Crysis, the highly-anticipated game we played today is still in pre-Alpha only. He expects it to go to Alpha by March, while the real beta and final version are pushed toward middle of 2007.

The demo of the game we played showed a great potential. The game was running in DirectX 10 mode on 32-bit Vista. The code may still have some infant illnesses but it looks great on a G80, Geforce 8800 GTX, Core 2 duo and it provides 60 FPS+, at almost all times. It certainly works and looks much better than Rainbow [buggy] Six Vegas.

The game is Cevet’s baby and he wants to make it as great as possible.

We have a few more details about the game and a short video that we will try to share later as we are about to jump on another meeting. Crysis looks and feels great and we're looking forward to playing it in all its polished glory.

But it looks like gamers won't be flocking to Vista from launch. There will be no games you can exclusively play on it. µ

Now although this is a mere idea of things to come, you have to note a few things. Crysis will only work with all the bells and whistles on DX10. DX10 is only on 88xx and R600 tech (or on the Xbox 360). So although they'd be insane to NOT have a DX9 playable option, to assume it will run comfortably on an X1950Pro is jumping the gun. We won't really know till mid 07 at best. The next thing is, do you REALLY want to play crysis without most of the bells and whistles, without the extra effects of DX10 and at a lower framerate? some games really are meant to be played with all the eye candy. Sure the gameplay so far looks worth it alone, but how many ppl have played FarCry dumbed down, only to CRY when they see it on a rig that is truly able to run it with the polish on? I for one cannot begin to compare HOW MUCH the visuals mean in a game such as that. I believe Crysis is 1 of those games you need to play 'pretty' and only time will tell us what hardware we need toa accomplish that.

^x1950xt not x1950pro big difference.
^^and i already have the difference for the 8800, ah just need to get this one sold and i good to go or wait 2 months and i'll have the money either way i'll have one card either 8800 or r600 in time for the game, and not just in time for crysis but all games after that for a few months

W1nTry · « **Reply #66 on:** January 11, 2007, 10:47:01 AM »

*W1nTry uses googleearth to find Xero house to sprang said 8800 when he gets it* Nah I wouldn't put out the money for 1 of those cause the rest of the rig not up to the task. Not that meh 4400+ is bad, but yuh need alot more power than that to really max out those cards... so perhaps 8600GT or something like that for me when the time comes. Or heck... give up gaming on teh PC *GASPS* yeah right... for the Xbox 360.... nah will never happen. But I doubt i'll be spending woddles of cash on a toppa top video card in a PC anytime in the foreseeable future.

Xerotolerant · « **Reply #67 on:** January 11, 2007, 01:43:26 PM »

what? 2.0ghz of dual core goodness is not good enough?!! *whips out cell phone and dials brother*

one of the perks of having a slightly older brother with similar interests is that you doh have to pay too much for things, ah mean where else would an upstanding 16 year old boy get 600+usd?

and what kind of processor i looking at? and i aint wanna hear about no core 2 buisness, i have a socket am2 board and i looking to go nforce 680a the moment it comes out so intel not getting any attention from me for a while.

W1nTry · « **Reply #68 on:** January 11, 2007, 01:55:12 PM »

Well sad to disappoint but Core tech is better atm at least performance wise. Although you're on AM2 which is great, that platform won't top out the 88xx series. It will be no SLOUCH i assure you, but I figure you'll need to go Quad Core or perhaps at least a 2.8GHz AM2 which should be very attainable in price later in the year. I not sure how well the QC parts will perform on AM2, but they should be fine, the first parts anys as HT2.0 is needed to really drive K8L. So time will tell. You could go with 88xx as AM2 will utlize it well enough. I on the other hand with 939 would be better off with a mid-range part, unless I OC the mem and X2 by a sizeable amount, which I don't really intend to.

The early crysys vids (DX 9) were run on an X1900XT (DX 9), not sure about the CPU tho. But it looked really good!! So i do believe that the video card is capable. This is why i was getting an X1900XT in the first place (damn card came defective).

High-end PC gamers have been wondering for a while now: will Crysis contain co-op and zero gravity play modes?

Only if it's left up to the modding community, Crytek responded.

In a recent interview with Eurogamer, senior game designer Bernd Diemer confirmed that, due to time restrictions, neither cooperative multiplayer modes nor zero gravity play will be made available in the final version of the eagerly-awaited FPS Crysis.

Instead, the developers at Crytek have been focusing on tuning up the game's complex enemy AI to eliminate the possibility of forum denizens badmouthing the game on account of witnessing enemy units inexplicably running around in circles. On the contrary, Diemer boasts that computer-controlled opponents in his game will be very intelligent and will attack and maneuver in groups like a well-oiled machine.

And lastly, Diemer has also taken issue with the recently leaked Crysis footage that shows gameplay at a very early stage of development. According to Diemer, the game has made vast strides since that time and is absolutely no indication of what will emerge as a final product. However, when asked about the game's current development phase, he responded that it is now "nearly" at alpha stage. We might have to wait for this game for just a little while longer.

Latest details. More info on the 'nanosuit', and how it integrates into the game's multiplayer.

It just gets better and better.

Crysis up and running on Intel Penryn

Tasty quad-core action

By Wily Ferret: Thursday 12 July 2007, 08:52
AN UPLOAD to video sharing site You Tube shows off Crytek's drool-inducing Crysis up and running on Intel's pant-wettingly fast Penryn chip.

In a video apparently taken at Crytek's headquarters, CEO Cervat Yerli talks about running the game on Penryn, a quad-core 45nm chip, saying that "A multithreaded CPU architecture also means multithreaded gameplay, in the sense that we have physics going on, AI going on... for us, more CPU cores means more interaction."

That's great, but Cervat doesn't quite seem to grasp the significance of the demo, while the presenter raves about "Unreleased technology... on the most anticipated unreleased game!!!!" in a way that seems slightly camped up.

The action looks smooth, even though it appears to be running just on a single-card 8800, although perhaps even Crytek can't get 8800 SLI to work properly on Vista.

That said, Yerli suggested that "Crysis has been optimised for multithreading... and the same for multi-GPU and DX10", so perhaps he has faith after all. Check out the video for yourself by heading over .
