Wasn't this already posted?

Crazyglues6898d ago (Edited 6898d ago )

I need a computer powerful enough to run farcry 2 and Crysis and Gears of War PC with out breathing hard, for under 2 grand...

Somebody tell me can it be done...Or do I need more Money for this mission?

NRG6898d ago

Well if you want to build one yourself, newegg.com is all you'll probably ever need. Done there, it's definitely possible under 2 grand. If you want it to come built for you and you just choose what you want inside, you're going to need to go somewhere like Dell/Alienware, Fragbox, etc.

VirusE6898d ago

Crazyglues NRG said it best "newegg" you can build a monster for 2k. Intel just did a cpu refresh so you can get some fast chips for an amazing price. The e6850 is only 330 bucks!!! I have a 8800gts i can sell for a good price if you need:)

Crazyglues6898d ago (Edited 6898d ago )

I don't think I'm good enough to really do the whole thing myself but I like what i'm seeing at newegg, if this is what the Pro's do then I guess I will use my one life line, and call in a friend who's a tech geek to help me put it together...

Still have a little trouble finding the best stuff that works, Like I wish the site could tell you what case would work best with this mother board. stuff like that.

oh and thanks VirusE bubbles for you, as for the card thanks but I think i'm going ultra... (I must say it's fun building it from scratch)
But seems to be coming along nice.. will post a link or something when I got it all together.

ShiftyLookingCow6898d ago

hey hold on till 45nm quads come from intel and amd. Crysis runs best on quad and 64bit vista(dx10 otherwise any 64bit OS)

lets see if it can live up to the hype

VirusE6898d ago

Who cares as long as it looks that good! j/k

AIZEN SOZUKE6898d ago

i still dont really honestly know what you pc fans think is so astoundingly amazing about this game, you say you need a supercomputer to run the game, if that was true, then the only gaming machine capable to run it is the ps3, good luck on your pc trying to run it, the game doesnt look cg level, so supercomputer power isnt required, there are only about 7 games on ps3 that make it into cg level, because the ps3 is the only one that can do that, and it will only increase on the ps3, get the love of crysis out of your head, do you love that game, its old old news now, your the only ones hanging on to it, let it go

LOL... are you serious, what game do you see that is coming out that looks like it's going to re-define the PC market in 2008. As far as I can tell this is one hell of a Game, especially if you can get your spec's of your PC up to the level of High End running Direct X10.

Sure it will run on lower end models, but we all know if you don't have the specs to run it on the high end, then you will not see how amazing the game is. It's just like FarCry I got it running but not until I got that new Graphics card did I see just how sweet the Pistol fires and how real it looked.

It's just the sad truth about the PC Gaming market, it's just not a Porsche if it doesn't have a Porsche engine. Zero to sixty in something that looks like a Porsche is just not the same.

Playing it right now looks amazing! :D
so much fun, i hope they make a vr mod for crysis 2 / 3 too!

DivineHand125512d ago

This is amazing. This is the direction VR should go in to boost adoption. Since I have beaten every Crysis except 1, this is now a good excuse to correct that problem.

Crytek Wanted Crysis To Be "Future-Proof"

According to Crytek CEO Cervat Yerli, "I want[ed] to make sure Crysis does not age, that [it] is future proofed, meaning that if I played it three years from now, it should look better than today." Yerli and the team designed Crysis' highest graphical settings for the PC hardware of 2010 and beyond.

While Crytek has officially announced Crysis 4 is in development, nothing new has surfaced. For now, gamers' only way to scratch that itch is to play the Crysis Remastered Trilogy available on PC and consoles.

OG 2007 Crysis (not the remastered weirdo), is & will forever be a legend amongst the PC community.

PrinceOfAnger517d ago

This video will always be impressive to me, even for years to come. Some things here are better than games we have today, OG crysis is the best version!

RaidenBlack517d ago

OG Crysis physics, man ... amazing! Thanks for the reminder!

PrinceOfAnger516d ago (Edited 516d ago )

Looks really nice with VR mod too

FinalFantasyFanatic516d ago

I'm still shocked that it looks as good as it does today, puts some modern games to shame.

Profchaos515d ago

I thought the remaster was fine tbh some rough edges at launch but after some patches it's decent

isarai516d ago

I mean the lighting and physics still hold up extremely well. I still revisit it from time to time.

RedDeadLB516d ago

That CPU performance thing is preventing it.

isarai515d ago

Yeah unfortunately Crystek's decision to bet on the linear progression of clock speed in CPUs was derailed by the unforseen shift towards multicore CPUs. It just wasn't built with that in mind because that wasn't even in the conversation at the moment

DivineHand125516d ago

I remember when I tried to play Crysis with my Intel Pentium Dual core E2200 @2.2GHz , 4GB ram and GeForce 9400gt. I was a kid back then and that was the best I could do. I would get about 15 to 20 fps. When I over clocked the CPU to 2.8GHz I would get about 40fps. The experience wasn't good at all and it was the only PC game I could not run back then unless and put the settings on low. At that point the game went from cutting edge graphics to PS2 graphics. To this day I haven't completed the OG Crysis. I was able to complete Crysis 2 and 3 after building a new PC when I got my first job.

HyperMoused516d ago

Never played it, worth a try you think?

Profchaos515d ago (Edited 515d ago )

Worth a try just because it's the only game that lets you pick up a turtle on the beach and throw it at enemy soldiers that should have been a back of the box feature.

But nah seriously unless you're nostalgic for it I'm not sure if it will hold up

Crytek went so overboard on the Crysis tech and sent devs to photograph leaves in Haiti

"The shader work that came out of this was mind-blowing at times."

RaidenBlack529d ago

Amazing, often misunderstood
The dumb AI was deliberate, so that the players can explore and experiment with the world and all the features.

vTuro24528d ago

It really is. Most people only remember it for its graphics but the gameplay was equally amazing.

RaidenBlack529d ago

Hope they try to pour nearly same amount of dedication to the new Crysis 4

DefenderOfDoom2529d ago

Well worth the extra work ! I enjoyed all 3 Crisis games and would also love a new one .

JunonZanon529d ago (Edited 529d ago )

Still wish game development was overall this passionate and minutious about their projects. Obviously, there are still some great studios as exceptions.

LikAChicken528d ago

I’ll never forget Far Cry 2 and the amount of details they packed in.

Yea there were some issues with the gameplay loop and the sickness aspect but you could tell they really tried to nail details.

DivineHand125528d ago

I haven't beaten the first Crysis but I did play Crysis 2 and Crysis 3. I know some PC players were annoyed by the last 2 games being developed with consoles in mind but I believe it was an improvement. I had a great time with Crysis 3 to the point where I believe it was too short.
