Or maybe you're talking about Crysis Warhead, whose graphics will be lower than Crysis itself so that every PC may run it?

You, and AMD, and NVIDIA should both thank Crytek for Crysis. It is the only reason most people would have a better graphics card than a 8800GT.

But still, it is only ONE game; and it turned out that way because Cevat Yerli aimed for the best graphics possible by taking PC's extra hardware power over consoles into advantage.

He has told numerous times that while Crysis' sales among PC games were excellent, they were still way below even a mediocrely popular console game; and regretted his decision, and Crytek has already dropped PC exclusivity.

Tell me ONE great PC-exclusive game on the shelves that a 4870 wouldn't be enough for.

Tell me ONE great PC-exclusive game that is going to be released in the near future, and that a 4870 wouldn't be enough for.

Unless you are some graphiliac (I made that word just now!) who thinks 4xAA is so rubbish that you can't play any game at that setting and HAVE to play every game at 8xAA, a 4870 (on a monitor smaller than 30") is enough for everything except Crysis that has been released and that is going to be released in the near future.

If you do have a 30" screen, then it's a 4870x2 for you. But TWO 4870x2's? That makes no sense, unfortunately.
