Cheers good to know.

Looks like my PC should handle it.

Can't wait to get this game now. Not long until the demo either.

JESUS THAT'S MINIMUM???

Unsurprising but to see it in print shows how much games are moving on now

Gonzo0 · 9 Oct 2007 at 18:40

The recommended spec for GPU is higher than i thaught.

Excellent, i should be able to run this !

Margaret · 9 Oct 2007 at 18:52

Recommended doesn't add up, the minimum is far, far, far lower than the recommended.

weringo · 9 Oct 2007 at 18:55

8800gts 640 is recommended

Tejstar · 9 Oct 2007 at 18:55

Its going to work on sm2 ? Thats a lot of work they've put in to be friendly to older systems there

Nymins · 9 Oct 2007 at 19:18

Hopefully my 8800GTS 320mb will be okay.

taz488 · 9 Oct 2007 at 19:29

8800gts recommended, thats ott, bioshock recommended a 7900gt, and crysis recommending a top of the range card? i know its good but is it that much better?

Yeah it is that much better, high quality in crysis blows bioshock away, no other game comes close to the GFX crysis puts out.

silversurfer · 9 Oct 2007 at 19:36

Yea the quality is impressive and we havent even seen dx10 or very high settings yet and then after that the engine still has further technology that can be unlocked apparently.

Im not impressed by the sound, physics or gameplay but the graphics is the best Ive seen

the Physics in the beta is SEVERELY limited.

i'd place a fairly large wager that the sound in the Beta isn't as good as it will be in the full game Either.

subaru_swift · 9 Oct 2007 at 19:43

will it be best to use vista for the DX10 eye candy or will 64bit xp pro do ??.

cheers

silversurfer · 9 Oct 2007 at 19:43

Yea I agree, its not the proper game. Ive tried to turn on proper physics and it wont let me which is good because I'd be disappointed if the cars handled this poor normally

dx10 needs vista
