Well they is a surge of video cards hitting the market between June and July and I am now throughly confused on what card is adequate for gaming at resolution 1680x1050. I already have a 8800gt and it feels more then enough for most game but when I fired up Crysis on very high (on vista), my average fps in the first level seemed to be around 15 and dropping with every level making it very unplayable. Now I dont wana run with AA or play beyond 1680x1050 (22inch monitor) so I was wondering, what graphics card would be sufficient to play crysis on very high at 1680x1050? I am fine playing on 25-30fps.
Although I do no plan to buy another graphics card for another few months (wana see how everything turns out), with the price of the 8800gt going down quickly, was wondering if going SLI with an 8800gt would significantly increase my frame rate (5-10 extra fps is all i need in crysis on top of 15fps from 1 8800gt) or would it be better just to get an 9800gtx has it drops significantly in price (or a 4850). I heard that some cards where better suited only for higher resolutions 2500x1600 (i think that was it), what exactly is in this category?
