Crysis @ Very High @ 60 FPS?


Recommended Posts

Is there a system available at the moment that can play Crysis with everything set to max (apart from AA) at 1280x1024 at 60 FPS?

I doubt even a system with a Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad QX6850 processor, 4 GB DDR3 memory and a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra 768 MB could to be honest, and just those components alone come to ?1350 without the rest of the system!

What makes you say that?

I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 processor, 2 GB DDR2 memory and a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 320 MB and it runs around 10-20 FPS at the levels I stated and I can't see the faster hardware I listed being 3x/4x faster personally.

Yeah.. on my system, with a little over clocking I get playable frame rates from mostly MAX settings, however I don't think 60 is possible atm unless you *really* spend some money and overclock like heck.

Probably the top C2Quad overclocked with watercooling, 4GB DDR 1066, Dual 8800GTXs (OCd to heck), Dual 10K RPM Raptors :D,

.... and a small screen so it's playing in low res :p

Crysis still looks nice on everything on high. And, it's very playable at those settings (was getting ~60 fps on [email protected], HD2600XT, 2x1gb 800mhz DDR2 on Vista 32bit Ultimate and 1280x1024 res.).

I find that hard to believe. My C2D @ 2.7Ghz, 2GB DDR2 RAM, and HD 2900 XT gets ~20fps with those exact settings.

Oh, relax you hyenas. Made unnoticed mistake while typing on the keypad (clicked the six instead of the three), and you jumped on me like I was bleeding in the middle of the desert :huh:

Gotta agree -- 60FPS doesn't seem too realistic given your specs -- especially the video card.

And what's wrong with a card that got 512mb of DDR3 memory, in this days of time?

Not new enough?

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
    • Wow, 50% increase for the base model. That's steep!
    • A group made up of dozens of cybersecurity experts, including several well-known veterans of the industry, published an open letter to the U.S. government asking it to lift the export control order on Anthropic’s Fable and Mythos models. According to the open letter, “this action has taken the best models away from [cybersecurity] defenders” who now can’t use the models to find vulnerabilities and make their software and products more secure. “To pull the best capabilities away from defenders without a good reason when our adversaries are rapidly advancing is dangerous,” read the letter. On Friday, the U.S. government ordered Anthropic to limit the export of Fable and Mythos, citing national security concerns, without explaining the specific reasons behind the order, according to Anthropic. In response, the company suspended access to the models to all users worldwide.     https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/15/cybersecurity-vets-protest-dangerous-us-government-ban-on-anthropics-most-powerful-models/
