Crysis System Requirements Released

Crysis is a highly anticipated PC shooter, mostly because of its stunning visuals. But the better they look, the more demanding they are, any PC gamer will tell you that. An admin posted the hardware requirements on the official Crysis forums. Although pure speculation, the admin claims he has researched a lot in order to get the requirements. Sounds pretty accurate, considering it’s Crysis;

Minimum Requirements

CPU: Athlon 64 3000+/Intel 2.8ghz
Graphics: Nvidia 6600/X800GTO (SM 2.0)
RAM: 768Mb/1Gb on Windows Vista

Time 2 upgrade my PC

Agree with tech_mastermind

Good that I overclocked my 3000+ to 3500+ speeds. Also I think, with these requirements, my 6800GS is sufficient to play at 1024 X 768.

i pass the minimum req's

I

guess I can more than handle this one

HL2's Valve or the Steam account system...???

But these Minimum System Requirements are NOT Official ... The post on Crysis forums has been suspended. Though i think these speculations are good enuf !!! No one can be mre happy than me as it will supposedly play on my system.

Ok i guess it'll run on mine although the net connection will be a problem ( i got so irritated that HL2 would not run all it did was keep updating itself and trying to login to my account.

by the way how do i overclock my AMD any place where i can get the tutorial?

the internet connection requirements are 'only' for the online play. And EA already has a steam like service(EA downloader) , but they don't distribute games by online only mode like Valve does with steam , games are also available in traditional pakaging .

btw there was a contrwersy about requirements trueness:-

I already mentioned b4 that these are intelligent conclusions derived from reports frm unofficial sources.

The account at crysis forum has been suspended !!!

Well .. my PC is over the min. requirements by quite a lot ... but i still doubt how good these specs are ... coz the gamespot reviewed it on a X2 4800+ and a single X1900XTX nad said they plaid at ultra high settings (assuming atleast 1280*1024 , max) .. i think my rig can do better than 1024*768 , high ... and maybe even better coz i'm getting a X2 4200+ very soon

But what really bugs me is the fact that they're asking 6600 for SM2.0 support ??? Hmmm .. strange coz i think the FX series can do that too ....
