Eh, I've been playing the demo at 1680x1050, all on high, shaders on very high, DX10 in Vista and there are a few slowdowns but it's definitely playable. Maybe I'm not as desperate for frames as some, but I've found gameplay to be very smooth overall. Biggest slowdowns are during the cut scenes honestly, which matters less. I'd love it to be smoother, obviously, but I'm not going to complain one bit considering everything the engine offers (e.g. tons destructible foliage and destructible environments, insane water quality, high-res textures, probably the most realistic human faces yet, high quality explosion/fire effects, etc...). E6600@3.0GHz/2GB/GTS640. I've been enjoying the GTS for almost a year now, so the fact that it can play Crysis with breathtaking visuals and get respectable performance is just gravy in my book. Kudos to Crytek for a job well done.
