First of it all its graphic then is Crysis

Everybody knows that Crysis will be the best game if we will take the graphic on our view. The name of crysis engine is Cry Engine 2, its the second engine from creators of Far Cry.
The engine of Crysis has been created for two years...
The technical things about Crysis engine.
Directx 10 technology it means pixel shadel 4.0 and its only supported by ATI R600 and Nvidia G80 but of course you could play on an older card like ATI R350 ( simply Radeon 9800 with pixel shader 2.0 ) Every movie what you see on internet works with Directx 9. There was only one movie showed Directx 10 technology in Crysis, you can find it here:
video.google.pl/videoplay?docid=-6514930139171451649&q=Crysis+trailer

Every movie what shows crysis in action works with directx 9 technology. Of course Crysis will come in two versions of directx. One of them is for windows vista, and the second is for windows xp, so dont worry you can also play in an older card and dont listen the media, they always want your money for new "High End" card. Crysis will work with all cards supported Directx 9 and PS 2.0

Do you have any idea of what a DX10 card will cost? Will it be pci-16 or maybe 32?

G80 from nvidia is coming really fast m8 there are two versions in first edition 8800GTX for 599 euro and 8800GTS 499 euro. I dont know too much about ATI R600.
I never heard about pci 32 I think it will be pci express x16.

In my opinion everybody should wait for ATI R600, because they known much more things about unified shaders then Nvidia. Those shaders are at the same time vertex shaders as pixel shaders and they are in cooperative mode wich can be used as pixel or vertex shader. Its a revoltiun in graphic cards unified shaders are in xbox 360. Nvidia have 128 unified shaders in 8800GTX and about 96 shaders in GTS version. R600 Propably will come up with 96 shaders but its not a point to choose a card. Anyway i want to tell we should wait for some tests both cards Nvidia G80 and ATI R600.
