wow now I am really ashamed of buying a core i3 for my budget gaming pc, hopefully it won't be that bad considering that the game favors intel architecture.

Always when you overclock a amd system, the CPU_NB (northbridge ) is so or more important then clock itself. Just raise the multiplier and no cpu_NB over makes no sense at all!!! The performance boost its significative!!

And the game play still is average or below. When people say they want gameplay over graphics and then push Crysis 2 you know that is not the truth.

I would've liked to see how a single GTX 580 held out. There were single and double 570s, but only double 580s. Otherwise, good article. It looks like Metro 2033 has been knocked off as the benchmark standard.

So a $109 dollar Phenom II X4 945 CPU can play Crysis 2 just fine as long as you have a Highend GPU. Well I got one of the two now I need an Nvidia Geforce GTX 570 Time to retire my ATI Radeon 4770 and sell it on ebay.

That processor will definitely bottleneck a GTX570 (at lower resolutions the performance hit seems quite severe), although yes, you'll probably still be able to achieve playable frame rates at anything but maxed out settings.

Doesn't look that way seems like the Phenom II X4 945 @ 3gz paired with a Geforce GTX 570 on highest details on a 1280x 1024 with 45fps seems to be pretty playable.

Sorry, I just assumed that since you were going for a GTX570, you'd be running it at higher resolutions.

Was definitely surprised by some of the #s, particularly the SLI 460s. Also surprised at the lack of an X58 benchmark. I'm running D3D11 ultra and high-res textures at 1920x1200. I have a 4.2ghz i7 950 and SLI GTX 470s and I'm getting a constant V-synced 60FPS.
