When this game is released it will BLOW EVERYTHING away.... O_O .... of course we have no idea what kind of requirements we'll need yet, but in the least from that demo it was running on a SINGLE 8800GTX.... so I believe a dual core with 8800GTS should do well to run it. However it'd be pretty $hitty if it needs a quad core... then again we do need a reason to upgrade once in a while so this could well be it... this is out next year I think... so that give me some time

As Arc said, its coming out mid September, which isnt that far away AT ALLL. It will be outrageous at best to say that you NEED quad core to play this game since even at the game's release, quads wont even be that widespread.

Check there. They wouldn't put the release date there unless it was official.
Crytek's website though has the release date as just '2007'. Nothing more. So, we'll see.....

damn i need a new graphics card soon... the game cd might watch my lil ATi x1550 and spit on it...lol

Yuh sayin it like yuh aint sure.

My friend, this game is all about the eye-candy. Unless you have a high-end(-ish) DX9 card (ATi 19xx, Nvidia 79xx),
then this eye-candy will be 'off-limits' so to speak. The thing is, the graphics are so much a part of the gameplay
that not playing on 'medium-high' to 'high' settings might actually ruin the experience. We'll just have to wait and see.

As PC gamers, what drives our regular hardware upgrades the most is usually new games right?

This game will force MANY to upgrade their hardware. Most likely video-card, and if you can afford it, 8800 GTS fo shizzle.

Crysis runs on DX10 notebook

8700M has the power

By Wily Ferret: Tuesday 24 July 2007, 09:49
WE'VE EXPRESSED plenty of doubts about the suitability of current-gen DX10 hardware to deliver a solid gaming experience in the upcoming wave of PC games. Plenty of benchmark tests on titles like Lost Planet and Colin McRae seem to suggest that any decent level of performance is going to require GeForce 9800 level hardware.

But it seems that we could be wrong, if this report at DigNews is anything to go by. The chaps there had a chance to go hands on with Crysis, the DX10 posterboy - running on a Toshiba Satellite laptop with GeForce 8700M graphics.

The 8700M is a little less than high-end and suffers slightly from being in a laptop, with all the constraints that that incurs. But that doesn't stop the DigNews fellas from being blown away by the looks of the game. "Damn, this game is beautiful," the writer enthuses. "It’s hard to take in the lush, organic jungle environments and not be impressed. The beautiful water, the wonderful lighting, the fantastic character models... and every last inch crafted with such amazing detail."

If it all sounds rosy, then it isn't quite - the writer admits that, "Even running on a top-of-the-line PC, the framerates still frequently shuddered," but we're amazed that a mid-range mobile part managed the game with any aplomb at all, frankly.

So will we see a better gaming experience on Crysis than we have on some of the half-hearted Xbox 360 conversions we've seen recently? It seems we may, and that will surely be something to smile about. DX10 performance might not be quite such a crisis, after all. µ

Hey didn't you guys read the article? they got it running fine on a laptop aka desktop handicap and a 8700M aka crippled 8800 at BEST. Thus I am sure even a 8600GT should run this game comfortably with some of the bells and whistles aka a DECENT gaming experience.

If you have not already, PLEASE visit Gametrailers and search for Crysis media. The ' E3 2007 Developer Walkthrough' parts 1-3 in particular.
All the stuff you've seen/read STILL will not prepare you for what you will see there.

Dont take my word for it though. Check dat s#!t...

Crysis to arrive on November 16th

New era of DX10 gaming set to begin in November

By Theo Valich: Thursday 02 August 2007, 17:59
Click here to find out more!
THERE WERE SOME insecurities about the release date of Crysis, and whether the title would ship this year or slip into 2008, but now these fears can be dispelled. This upcoming mega-hit will ship in November, and the shipping date is 16th.

This game is pretty much make or break for DirectX 10 API, since any failure happening would hamper the acceptance of DX10 API for quite some time. Crysis supports both DX9 and DX10 APIs, but this game looks absolutely phenomenal.

Besides single-player mode, Crysis will intro Power Struggle, multiplayer mode based on strategy and action elements, spotting 32 players battling for control of weapons and vehicles.

When it comes to system demands, this machine could be that final push that will send many Pentium 4 and Athlon XP machines into retirement and that is what AMD, Intel, and Nvidia are hoping. µ

I smell an upgrade coming...
