Link to the Intel discussion on Crysis and that quad core should provide the best experience on Crysis. ONLY the beginning of the next gen games. Get that Q6600 over the 6850 while you still can.

A couple of weeks back, inCrysis fielded your questions about Intel's technology and how this will shape the game play experience in Crysis. Intel has kindly answered many of the questions and are published below. Stay tuned for more Q&A's from Crysis's other technology partners!
What kind of performance difference will we see in Crysis between Single/Dual/Quad/ core processors?
You will see a large performance increase on multi-core processors, especially regarding the worst case frame rates during intense action sequences allowing the player to experience a more stable frame rate through out the whole game. A quad core system should provide the best gaming platform for Crysis.
