Personal PC help

Post » Thu Sep 23, 2010 12:08 pm

I know that Crytek has not released specs on Crysis 2 yet but some of you already infer what the specs will be and I respect that being a main pc gamer, that its probably close to 1:1 with the future specs for Crysis 2

Anyways I want you guys to tell me if I should buy the game on My PC or Xbox.

Here are my PC specs and tell me if they will smoke my Xbox meaning it would be a safe bet to buy the game on that system or not.

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 5670 1GB
Processor: AMD Athlon II X4 635
2 GB X2 DDR3-1600 Memory Module
ASUS M4A77T Motherboard
PSU: 700 Watts

your video card is lacking, and you could use some more ram.

lol I don't want to seem like a fanboy or anything, and I do have all the consoles but when it comes to games like this, it's like a lifetime experience. It's not CoD, Halo, or any other game that overuses the same engine this is a whole new beast and for that I would say save up your money, upgrade the video card NVIDIA preferably (not being a fanboy) and add a couple sticks of ram and you should be good. Not only will you be able to enjoy this game, you can use your PC for other games and media as well.

You are going to be close to the minimum specs (which will probably be an Athlon II X2), and you are lacking in the Video Card and Memory areas.

Unless you are either ready to play on low graphics settings or spend money to upgrade to an X4/6870 kind of thing, then go with the console version. :)

actually your pc is pretty decent and will most likely run crysis 2 if it anything like the first game however the ram will almost definitely be an issue speed wise
