Minimum Requirements
CPU: Athlon 64 3000+/Intel 2.8ghz
Graphics: Nvidia 6200 or ATI X1300 - Shader Model 2.0
RAM: 768MB on Windows XP or 1GB on Windows Vista
HDD: 6GB
Internet: 256k+
Optical Drive: DVD
Software: DX9.0c with Windows XP

Recommended Requirements
CPU: Dual-core CPU (Athlon X2/Pentium D)
Graphics: Nvidia 7600GT or ATI X1800GTO (SM 3.0) or DX10 equivalent
RAM: 1.5GB+
HDD: 6GB
Internet: 512k+ (128k+ upstream)
Optical Drive: DVD
Software: DX9.0c with Windows XP

Once again, these are estimates only and are no way official. I just want to makesure that is clear. However, if you have a graphics card similiar in performance to, or better than a 7800GTX, then expect to play Crysis quite nicely ( presuming your other system specs are up to scratch ).

Here are the current speculated specs which can be found in the Information Center on this site. The listed information below is fact, however the requirements are estimations based off those facts as well as the other information posted in this thread.

Crysis will run on both DX9 & DX10 as well as Windows XP and Windows Vista.
A graphics card that supports Shader Model 2 or higher is required.
CryEngine2 is estimated to scale back 2 years, and scale ahead 1.5 years.
A single 7800GTX will run the game quite well on fairly high settings according to Crysis Art Director, Michael Khaimzon.
Crysis will dynamically utilize all processing threads available. Meaning quad-core processors will be supported.

whens this game due out? I think it should run nicely on my system in dx9 mode, just finished oc'in my card

not bad for 1.4v gpu?

I'm not sure if I should do 1.425v as this oc guide says.. I dont know if my card uses the same volts as a 1900xt/xtx in 3d mode.

i meet the minimum requirements, yes!

Chewy · Nov 29, 2006

I think I will need more gpu ram to run this game near max settings

who knows though. I like my max settings

randomperson21 · Nov 29, 2006

does anyone know how much this is going to cost? i'm going to assume around $50-60

wazzledoozle · Nov 29, 2006

I got 2gb of ram instead of going dual core, hope that turns out to have been a wise decision.

JC316 · Nov 29, 2006

Hmm, I should be well within the med/high settings range with DX9.

Above minimum, but not having a dual core keeps me from the recommended specs

PVTCaboose1337 · Nov 29, 2006

My comp is fine, just need to OC a little while I play it.
