Another reason why I'm playing wait and see...I want to see 60+ with 45 MINIMUM at 1080p in crysis for my money next time. Sure, these gains in other games are fine and dandy, but in the end I still want to play through crysis & warhead at 1920x1080 maxed out with 8xAA and 16xAF... Is that really too much to ask when it comes to a game that old?

At this rate, by the time I can do that, we'll have Crysis 2 on CryEngine 3 and be right back to the drawing board on actually being able to run it.

In the mean time, sold my old 8800GTX(got a nice sale on it from someone who wanted it for Tri-SLi) and picked up a XFX 4850 1gb(it was only $70 shipped...new) to play around with while waiting for the dust to settle on the DX11 war. She's a temporary, but I still made a bit off the deal so I'm happy...It'll at least give me a reintroduction to ATi, and perhaps some Volt Modding fun in the process.
