How smooth will this run Crysis???

I asked this like 2 weeks ago in another topic but now i completley changed my rig. Dont get mad.Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHzASUS P5Q Pro LGA 775 Intel P45( can anyone reccomned me a better crossfire board if possible under 200$)2 HIS Radeon HD 4850 512MB in crossfire mode 8 Gigs of G.Skill DDR2 800 RamHow smooth will this run Crysis???
That would probably do well at high. Your graphics cards will still limit you in Crysis.My rig (see sig) runs Crysis in DX10 everything on Very High at 1680x1050. It looks smooth and marvy!I just downloaded the new ATI 8.10 drivers tonight and the game runs like butter. Played an hour in Crysis before the drivers and then after. Much improvement. Thanks AMD/ATI!How smooth will this run Crysis???

It should be completely playable, especially if you do some tweaking. I have an 8800GTS 512MB and play the game on high settings with medium shadows and consistently get above 30FPS (except in one or two sections).

I have no problems running on my card and setup.

Do you presently have those two cards, or are you thinking of getting them?

You get the benefit of 2 GPU's on one card and don't have to worry about what games it will take advantage of Crossfire. My card runs Crysis Very High at 1680x1050 and is very playable and looks incredible.
