For just Crysis. Erm to me it's completely a waste of money.

If the money was burning my pocket which it normally does i'd save it up and get a single GPU card.

Not really worth it. You'd be better off with a single, more powerful, card (maybe even keep one of those GTS 250 for PhysX if you fancy it).

Would be bottlenecked by your proc not unless you can get it to 4ghz+

Save your cash OR use it towards a GTX260, sell the 250's, and get a 2nd 260.
