Not sure how reliable this is: Quad-core is Crysis phwoar - The INQUIRER
Quote:
INTEL'S SPINNERS will surely be rubbing their hands in glee at the latest news to come out of the Crytek - ahead of the demo of Crysis, due to land tomorrow, Crytek's man in charge has revealed that a quad-core processor is top of his list of essential upgrades.
Cervat Yerli, who seems to spend more time talking to the press than actually working on finishing the game, revealed that on most systems, Crysis is likely to be CPU bound. "If [your system is] balanced, we are more CPU bound then GPU, " he told Shacknews. Crytek's Cevat Yerli on Crysis Tech - Shacknews - PC Games, PlayStation, Xbox 360 and Wii video game news, previews and downloads " Multi-core will be beneficial in the experience, particularly in faster but also smoother framerates... We recommend quad core over higher clock."
It's like a press release that writes itself, isn't it?
The game also supports operating under 64-bit Vista, and we are told that more memory - more than 4 gigs, that is, if you're counting - will "yield quicker loading times." We pretty sure that, for the moment, most people will be content to keep a few extra hundred quid in their pockets and wait a few extra seconds. etc.......
