Got $1,800 and a 1200W Power Supply? Then you can run Crysis on "Very High"

All you need is three graphics cards.A German PC game hardware website (aptly named PCGamesHardware.de) has finally built a PC that can run Crysis smoothly on the "Very High" setting. All you need is three killer nVidia SLI video cards (that will set you back around $1,800) and a power supply capable of running them. They figured 1200 watts should do the trick!

From the benchmark graphic below, you can see that they were successful in getting the game to run at almost 38 frames per second. The United States NTSC format (which is standard for television and DVDs) is 30 frames per second, but a great video game should be able to run at twice that. Maybe they should have thrown a few more video cards into their behemoth machine!
