Hmm...All I have to say is that your quote "Crysis was one of the worst programmed game, though good looking, was no way near to optimized..." I would really have to disagree with you on this one. I think Crysis is the most optimized game out on the market, how many games do you know that would have you play on 20-fps and have it feel smooth as though it was giving you 40-fps? Name me one game because quite frankly any other game you play on 20-fps will be a slide show in my opinion. Just because crysis's graphics are ahead and far more advanced than its time does not mean its poorly optimized, its just ahead of its time, because you need truly extreme hard ware to run it, in 3 years from now, crysis would have average graphics by those standards. You cannot have a game that gives you the ridiculous photo-realistic graphics like crysis does and have it run without using extremely powerful hardware, its just not going to happen. If somebody disagrees with on me with this one please say, I would like to hear comments on it :)

-Game optimization is not based on games coding or how well it is, with you people, u changed the meaning of it being, if I cant run it its poorly optimized so its more opinion then fact :)
 



i know because obviously almost everyone on the forum knows that there is only drivers for quad sli and everyone also knows that 2 gtx 295 is quad sli,anyway IMO this is a fake build and IMO there is no one with unlimited budget and i bet that he is just a child under 18 years who justs wants everybody to say WOW 😱 😱 what a build i wish i can afford one like that
 
@blackhawk1928 I have not complained about the look and feel of the game have I ?
Sure you must have seen Crysis warhead or for that matter Far cry 2...Hw does that play ??? Even it provides nearly as good visuals but requires comparatively low power h/w for doing that...why is it so ? because they had optimized the code better so that it runs better...
 
Yes Warhead works better, I agree however barely, I have both games personally and on warhead on same settings and same resolution I was able to gain like maybe between 5-8fps. And with the 1.2 patch on the original crysis, it almost plays as well as warhead now, but both are very hard to play and require lots of beef to power them.

-GKAY WROTE: "Even it provides NEARLY as good visuals"

-Notice how you said it gives nearly as good visuals, the original crysis, in my opinion gives a little bit higher quality textures and physics, just a little, but enough to take down on that 5-8fps, maybe I am wrong but I was looking at screenshots side by side and for the same settings on both games, I think crysis's textures and physics(especially during explosions) were looking a tiny bit better.
 



no this is not a fake build, when i say unlimited budget i mean under $20,000 its not as if you could find a gaming computer for more than that anyway... unless you spend it all on a 1 terra solid state (does that even exist?).
