Will 580 SLI be able to run Crysis 2 on medium ?

[appletree]

Now that Crysis 2 release date is approaching I was thinking of adding another 580 or maybe even two to make the game experience more enjoying. I am hoping for about 30+ fps @1920x1080 + 2xMSAA on medium, do you think this is realistic ? Or would I be better waiting for 59x when they are out and just SLI two of them ? Note that I am not that much interested in 3D gameplay - just the plain old good 2D.
Edit.: Also what PSU do you recommend for 3way 580 SLI ?





PS: And I am just kidding - of course
Sorry couldn't help it. *frustration*

Can't believe people actually gave real answers to this

Me neither. I even explicitly said I was kidding in the original post. Just substitute "medium" with "max" settings and the question still looks silly. Though it would be probably legit just couple of days ago. (which is basically the main point)

As the answers go I was hoping for some more serious advice, more like if the demo and DX11 announcement never happened (as both are sooo disappointing), e.g:

Note that your MB (P5Q Deluxe) doesn't support SLI so seems like waiting for 595 is your best bet (without SLI hacking). However if you want to make sure that you have the proper rig from day 1 when Crysis 2 will be out (without waiting) you can go for 2x 6970 CF right now which should be still adequate for Crysis 2 (although in game tessellation will probably suffer as Nvidia seems to have slight edge in that department)

Hello, I think you should be fine with just single 595 - it should be able to run Crysis 2 on medium and maybe even 4xMSAA if that's what you are after. However with all that fancy hardware don't forget to have some basic stuff around - like a mouse. One can easily overlook this but in Crytek they were actually kind enough to add mouse support for the PC version. So you probably don't want to end up playing the game with just your gamepad.

Come on really, its obviously a troll topic.

I was thinking that maybe people who are posting their benches are just counter-trolling the OP, like they know he is trolling and just acting as if they were serious.
