Will an overclocked 8800GT play crysis at 1600x1200?

[wingnutLP1]

I have just seen that the new GTS is out soon, maybe early December. I have ordered a GT from overclockers but now I am not sure if I should wait...

My current spec is
X2 @3ghz and 2 gig of ram

With my water cooling I hope the 8800 GT will do 700 mhz so will this run crysis with the options turned up but not much aa and af?

Any thoughts?

I'd say it will do high but not very high, it'll be a 9*** that can cope with very high (thats a guess by the way!)

Guaranteed if you buy this:

That's it's stock speed!

probably not, crysis was designed to look good in 2 years time

Like the man said not 'very high' but probs 'high'.

Yeah I know but that says available 29th and many others are 23rd!! all "allegedly" of course.

Will the new GTS's be significantly better, from what I gather it will be the same core as the GT with more pipes?

I guess I am answering my own question here... Who knows is probably the answer!

Am halfway through crysis on my 8800 gts 640mb all high inc shadows etc and 1680-1050 plays fine isn't really a moment yet where it's chugged.
So the gt is even better so the answer is yes.

Hey m8, question: Is that DX9 or DX10?

 

[SS-89]

High settings are dx9

Wait until you get to snowy mountains.

Mine runs fine on all high with no AA even when it's at stock clocks.

If you're looking for a card that'll run in all very high then you need a time machine.

Very High looks worse than Dx9 with a nice config mod anyway. ;]

 

[r0cky]

looking for about 60fps @ 1600x1200, guess i will have to wait a year.

Yeah, definitely waiting a year (or two) lol.

 

[helmutcheese]

No, My card is faster and I cant play it well at 1600x1200 with Very High or even High with any AA.

I mean not get under 30FPS all times.

Makes no difference if I underclock my GPU or overclock it as the CPU is not being used properly (some claims theirs does) but its public knowledge now the game that was supposed to be CPU Dependant aint using Cores fully.

Read Crysis Forums thread for info as I cant be bothered with this game for now, there is better like CoD4 and patches are due in under 14days now.

Let them fix the game, spending more on hardware wont fix it, and you wont be getting 60FPS anytime soon.

I have like 6 good new games to complete, I wont be playing Crysis till at least FEB 2008 when Vista SP1 is final (Im testing RC1 now) and Crysis has had a few patches and Nvidia release a few new drivers (they both said they would in a dual interview few days ago).

I may even have new hardware by then depending whats out.

You don't need 60 FPS in Crysis for it to play smooth.

Haha, yeah I know what you mean. Now I'm wating for another gt to sli them so I can complete the game
