By dad I mean my gaming rig Crysis full graph I get about 30 frames per sec, on medium I get 160 FPS

Woo! Good stuff you have. It should make playing Crysis a breeze.

Yes indeed, I just need to get used to the controls. Been a while I played first person shooter. On a side note, on wifes pc "Dell on year old" I can barely play C&C3 against 3 computers on skirmish. The thing lags to hell, I set this rig to full graphics and played against 8 brutal computers and it was a breeze! I love the system!!!

Pretty decent setup you got there! Overclock that baby and post your results!

Lol, right now is setup in an office I have in the garage. It is usually a little warm in there and I do not want to add stress to the system. I am planning on relocating the computer to my bedroom within the next couple days. After doing so I will be able to overclock as I have central air in the house.

I see you are from PA, I used to live right above Baltimore!

I would check the specs the developer requires. I would say most new computers will run just about anything, even an old computer with a new video card will work good!!!

How about lowering the screen resolution to 800X600? I am also using a centered desktop which has a black border around it. I think it speeds up the computer.
