OK bit of rambling from me maybe

I am not getting a new graphic card until there is one which can hit at least 60fps+ in Crysis 1600x1200 with 16x anisotropic filtering and high quality settings.

When do you think this will happen.
 
I fail to see how the graphics card market is to blame for this 'disgrace', crytek simply released a hugely advanced engine, well ahead of its time (and i bet didn't optimize it as much as they could). There are plenty of other games out there that look fantastic and run smooth as silk on the 8800 series cards (read: Bioshock, UT3, Stalker, COD4, World in Conflict, The Witcher), Crysis is simply the odd one out.

I wonder if maybe Crysis coding is not up to scratch?
 
The game is far ahead of its time and it will take about 2 years before you can actually play the game on full detail. For me i don't see what all the obsession is about crysis, sure it has the best graphics that has been seen so far, but the fact is you can't play it maxed out on current hardware, theres no point in complaining and asking when. It will happen when it happens.

So what do we do when EA for examples decided to release something to match Crysis eye candy? Maybe Crysis coding can be blamed. I remember when Far Cry came out. I couldn't get any decent performance on my 6800GT. I tried the game again recently on the same hardware and the game was playing a lot better on my PC with high settings etc.
