I'd really like to know how much of a difference a dual-core CPU will make for games in the near future.

Near future? It's already here in Quake 4

PC said:
Dual core processors with Hyper-Threading Technology will see a performance increase of up to 87%. In short, systems with this technology will see the game run much faster than ever before.

Mac said:
With the update, Macintosh systems with an Intel Dual Core processor, which uses the SMP, will have a performance jump of 15 to 30 percent.

So that is quite a possible performance boost

Only thing I may stuggle with is my OC'd Opteron 146, by the time it comes out though i may have upgraded again.

CossackNoodle · 24 Jul 2006 at 14:07

by the looks of it I meet recommended quite nicely but
as if im gonna be playing it in high settings no way judging by recent performances on games

SnipaMasta · 24 Jul 2006 at 14:12

I'm under the reccomended RAM but I meet the graphics card requirements...oh well. I don't much mind playing it on lower settings, not much of a graphics h00r myself.

I noticed that last night too

I was suprised it got so much press.

i wasnt supprised, soon as someone sees the words 'crysis' and 'news' its like a moth to a flame

There is only one official Crytek forum at this time:

The specs are not official.

craaaaaig · 24 Jul 2006 at 15:59

I meet the minimum

Lt Goody · 24 Jul 2006 at 16:23

I will have my new system built by the time it comes out

Plasmoid · 24 Jul 2006 at 16:48

Time to upgrade to 2gb of ram and an X2

Glad my x1800xt makes muster.

128k+ upstream... was that specifically mentioned because there will be a lot players in a multiplayer match of because there will be a lot of physics talk going back on forth ?

Looks like we are getting to the point where the assumption of broadband is an excuse for bad net coding. ridiculous imo

You're right. Even though dialup users are a very small minority nowadays, it is no excuse not to refine online code. Some games are shockingly bad online because of this.

badgermonkey · 24 Jul 2006 at 16:51

Hmmm i need a proccessor upgrade

Better move from my 4000+ to a conroe! So looks like new RAM too! Ah gay i only JUST bought another gig of DDR!

I know, il upgrade my x1900xt while im at it

Im getting carried away, im going to lose all my student loan

Tigjaw · 24 Jul 2006 at 18:19

wow that's some hefty requirements, hopefully it means it's a nifty game

No you don't, you can't possibly have a DX10 card and Windows Vista now, nobody will meet the recommended specs yet, i guarantee it.

Id rather wait for the official specs.

I know who will be happy about the recommended specs for this game and thats OCUK lol!

Hmm looks like crysis will be the game that kills my 7800gtx, the 'recommended' specs are always still way short.

Indeed. Here's what I do with most specs:

Completely ignore the minimum spec.
Look at the recommended spec.
Add 50% to the cpu speed, memory size and gpu speed.
Use the above figure as the true minimum spec.

Doesn't ANYONE on the Internet read anything anymore? :confused:

In the thread that started it all

http://www.crysis-online.com/forum/index.php/topic,141.0.html

It clearly says

Here are the current speculated specs

and

The above specs are simply speculation

or am I missing something :confused:

benjo · 25 Jul 2006 at 12:34

I didn't miss it :cool:

I'll 'see' your 'I didn't miss it' and raise you an official statement by Crytek....
