A last minute check, What GPU are you running with? Pls? : Crysis

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 6:07 am

Out of curiosity, who among us upgraded our gpu's more than once?
Or recently updated our gpu's just for Crysis 2?

Here's my history:
Geforce 5500, 7900, 8800 gt, 9800 gx2, gtx 465 and gtx 460
Ati Radeon 9550, x1500 and Hd 4670, 5770

This is just for fun, or plain curiosity.

Geforce 7600GS
Radeon HD4870
And soon getting: Radeon HD5970 (XFX Black edition)

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 7:13 am

My history: GeForce GT8800, GTX9800, GTX285.

I currently get 50fps on high and 90fps on low on Crysis Wars, using the GTX285. I do not plan on upgrading my GPU for Crysis 2, unless the recommended hardware exceeds what i already have.

my first playthrough with Crysis was with an 8800gt (performed well) it crapped out after a couple years so I dropped in a 4850. shortly after that I won a computer from a contest which included a 5870, lucky me

If I wasn't that fortunate I probably would be looking into a GTX460 at the moment, with another one to drop in down the line (they SLI so incredibly well.) this is also what i recommend to people who are upgrading/buying systems

8600GT --> 9600GT --> GTX260 core 216 OC edition. Would love to upgrade for Crysis 2 but no $$$

9800GT for me, I'm not going to upgrade unless some decent DX11 cards get cheaper.

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 10:15 pm

Damn Shinanigans, I'm surprised you can remember that far back, I wish I could remember my lineup, I remember my Voodoo 2 then my voodoo 3 3000 then I can't remember anything between that and the aTI 9800 PRO 8800GT, 4850 and 5870, heh.

I was 17 when i had the M64

I forgot about my 12MB Voodoo2 card! Haha. That must've been the card i had prior to the M64. And prior to that i seem to recall an S3 Virge or something along those lines, but now you're really testing my memory

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 6:09 am

Yeah I was 16 when I snagged my Voodoo 2, but after the Voodoo 3 Im sure I had a riva tnt or something. If I recall the timeframe correctly after 3dfx basically went the way of the dodo(though really just aquired by nvidia) the only good choice was a RivaTNT and subsequent nvidia cards for some time, until ATI figured it should start trying on the consumer level.

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 1:41 pm

My history:
NVidia GF 2MX
NVidia GF 7600GS

Been using the same rig for almost four years now, but I've only gone through a few graphics cards, as I've overclocked them all

History:
8500 GT
EVGA Overclocked 8800GT
Then I bought Orange Edition fan slot from them, made the 8800 dual slot
Finally I bought a EVGA Overclocked Orange Edition, and they have been in SLI for 2 1/2 years

I'm not planning on upgrading my GPU for Crysis 2 until AMD's Bulldozer socket comes out and I can get a good 3.0 usb case

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 7:37 pm

My history:
Voodoo Banshee
Geforce 5500
Geforce 6800 GS
Geforce 8800 GT
Radeon 5850

This new Radeon is damned amazing. I haven't had a problem with anything yet. I can even play Crysis in 1080p at very high and the frames don't drop below an unplayable level.

» Wed Dec 03, 2008 7:13 pm

My history is from:
GeForce 2-
Nvidia 8400gs-
ATI 4870-
ATI 5870 (Current)
ATI Mobility 5870 (Current)
Both overclocked by %25

wow you guys have been quite a lot.

Me ive just had a desktop with no proper graphics card, then a dell studio 1555 laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 which i ran crysis on medium settings with roughly 35fps.

Im looking forward to the lower system requirements with better graphics in crysis 2 because i cant afford a better rig at the moment.
