Graphics Card Best For Crysis?

[Elvenmunky]

Right i was considering getting an xbox360 however i am going to buy a ps3 next year, so poor folk like me realised that i should put that money towards a new graphics card bearing in mind crysis is coming out, Long story short what new graphics card shall i get? in the 150-250 price range? thanx

Crysis will be using DX10 so I don't think there are any DX10 cards worth 250. Maybe you can wait till next year for the price of DX10 cards to come out?
If you don't want to wait then I guess you can get the 7900GT?

crysis isn't gonna be available for some time now as it has been delayed 'til mid '07. as of now the cheapest dx10 card u can purchase is like $450 or so. that same card will be in the $200 in 6 months so u might as well wait.

Yeah, dont go for the 8800's, theyre sell outs because theyre the first DX10 cards. Far better deals will come out once there are a few models to choose from.

ok thanx guys i may aswell wait, however will the 7900GT become obsolete when dx10 comes out?

Yeah. In fact it will explode and destroy your PC when DX10 is released. :(
