$1800 in Video Cards Still Doesn’t Max Crysis [Craziness]

3waySLI_01.JPGWe know Crysis is all about the high end, pushing the PC platform to its max. But I had no idea it went this far. PC Games Hardware magazine created a beefy system with NVIDIA’s latest and greatest video card…err…video cards. Their brand new Triple SLI, a combination of three NVIDIA geforce 8800s, should make short work of any PC game on the planet. But it couldn’t crush Crysis. Running on “very high” settings, the system reached a respectable (but far from mind-blowing) 37.9 FPS. In the words of a Gizmodo staffer, “I don’t know how these fuckers developed it.” In the words of this Kotaku staffer, “If you can’t see a game’s graphics on one of the world’s most powerful consumer setups, they don’t actually exist yet.”
