EA to Sell Gaming PCs for Crysis: It Still Won't Be Enough

Crysis brought many PCs, even higher-end gaming PCs, to their knees. Gaming rigs costing thousands of dollars choked horribly on Crysis and its resource-hogging CryEngine 2. As a possible remedy to that situation, EA will sell gaming computers to go with the Crysis Warhead release, slated for "fall" of this year. (MaxConsole.net's Chrisrebo)

So naturally you'd assume these are monster machines with 10 gigs of RAM and 16 processors each, right? Wrong.



The CryPCs will supposedly be in the neighborhood of $600 - $800. No doubt the six hundred dollar Crysis-branded EA PC can be tweaked to run Crysis in a somewhat pleasing fashion, but above 30 fps? Time will tell, but there will likely be more powerful, more expensive CryPCs priced according to the game's performance profiles. Or will they price them by frames per second? I can see it now: 15fps for $600, 30fps for $2400, 60fps for $9600. I hope I'm wrong.

Can't wait for the Crysis Warhead PC? Find your ultimate gaming computer with the best brands and components known to man!
