Crysis Settings are all on very high and resolution is 1680×1050, but I do not have anti-aliasing on at all… I mean come on.

This build originally cost me about $450, but I since have upgraded I bought a 1TB hard drive to replace the 500GB since that decided to blow up as soon as I bought my new Creative Blaster sound card. Also got a new 120mm Thermaltake Fan which is badass,.So it’s around a $700 build now, $900 including monitor, will continue to upgrade the computer, going to get a GTX260 around my birthday, and a new AM3 as soon as possible, but we’ll see, Thanks for watching.
