That's funny I recall crytek stating 1 gtx can max it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1MyQAKOT8Y Proof that YOU sir, are wrong.
if u get an 8600 and try tp play crisis with it, u will get an unplayable fps, guranteed. if u want a dx10 card that will last, get an 8800gts 320mb, they are a litte more money, but are worth it in current proformance, and next-gen proformance. um.... the minumim card I think is a 6200.
for crisis? well im not sure if there si a released min gpu spec out yet. im actually not sure if crisis supports dx9 either, it might be dx10 only. im really not into crisis, so idk this stuff. but for any decent settings (on dx10 mind u, and a native resolution) u will not get a playable fps.
6200 is a dx9 card, so it can't run dx10. Yes, Crysis supports dx9 and 10. But yes, they I think have an estimated minimum req. They say at minimum, Crysis looks like Farcry.
im sure u are going to get crisis so u can play it thru looking like farcry. farcry was beautiful, but crisis is just a dx10 showoff. that is the one game where it actually matters to max the settings out.
if u play crisis , then u might as well get an 8800gtx right now, and just grab another for sli later, cus u will need them.
that demo was also tailored for that prerelase g80 (i think it was a gtx, not sure), so it shows none of the demand that crisis will have upon release. i doubt it will run that well after they polish the game itself up, and whatnot.
I'm just saying, you don't need a killer card to run Crysis. SLI now? Right now, gtx sli will be bottlenecked by pretty much all the advanced hardware. By the time the sli gtx's won't be bottlenecked, there will be a better card out. So no, doing sli now is a bad idea. The g80 was released then, not prereleased. REAL TIME! So it does show what it can do. That's just alpha, they'll have it running even smoother once it's out. Why would they release a video promising a gtx maxing out Crysis, if it won't? That would be a terrible move.
