I'm broke, yet I still buy computer stuff/games and Mafia 2 is in my list xD So you'd help me get through uni by saving me money so I can pay for books and tuition :eek:

Im not worried about my shit. What I have will umm, well yes it will......

IT WILL PLAY CRYSIS! FUC*N AWSOME! :roll:

GLTA!

lol but didn't you read W1zz's words:
Unfortunately [Metro 2033] leaves a less than optimized impression, making it a candidate to surpass Crysis for the highest hardware requirements.
Just saying....

Both brilliant games and both tax the hardware, which I always appreciate.

Edit and added: just realized youre sporting a sexy 6990! That's the good stuff :p

You betcha! And I have room to clock too ;)

Great reference card and better CPU and ram :D

I just need this kind of game to try and cripple my system... That way, if it does I get to buy new goodies when money permits :)

Put me down for Metro 2033

I'd say that if you win Metro 2033 and try it out, you'll find that you'll want another 6990! I mean, that review showed a 6990 ~41fps@1920.1200, so figure a little more for 1080. So if you're nuts about 60fps, which I have become, you'll want more power.

That said, it's playable IMO at 40fps; any below that gets too choppy.

I hear ya and I have an 6950 unlocked reference card to add to the ststem. I sold but sence re-aquired it once again..

That should work fine and Yes I'm also anal not getting over 60FPS!

Who isn't :toast:
