By handpicking the right parts, Maximum PC intends to prove it is possible to build a 500$ machine capable of handling Crysis at an acceptable frame rate.
They in fact did it, and by seeing the results, this seems to render obsolete the claims that you need a 2000$ pc to play Crysis.
This article is not the ultimate argument however, at 500$ you have only the box, they assume you can salvage keyboard, mouse and Windows install key from your current/old PC. This also does not come with any game controllers.
Still, it seems to indicate that a 500$ PC is capable of handling all current PC game titles at 1080p which is awesome for budget players.
Fortnite fans are begging for the return of OG mode while using the player count as proof that fans are not happy with the game's direction.
It's been revealed that Helldivers 2 is Sony's fastest-selling game ever, beating the record previously set by god of War: Ragnarok.
It's not a first-party game though. Is it really too much to expect these low-rate websites to have the bare minimum of knowledge about the topic that they write about?
This reminds me of the hoops that some diehard Nintendo fans would go through to claim a game (like Bayonetta 2) is first-party just to say Nintendo is pumping out games.
That's insane! Congratulations Arrowhead! Be good if Sony did buy them, they could work closely with Housmareque and they could both help each other with projects, that'd be good to see
The studio behind the popular Thief Simulator 2 has announced its next project, Crime Simulator, for PC and consoles.
$175 for a 4870?!?! Goddamit!
Not sure why there is a headline change?
Still for a budget rig that's not bad performance. I take it their benchmark FPS are the highest achieved, because I dont believe that could maintain an average FPS of 36 at 1900x1200, even on Dx9 (high settings).
with 4870 ?? good luck :)
mine cost me about 900$ and it runs crysis on maximum settings, except for the AA (I put it at 2x. I can live with that).
Just buy your parts at the right time (holiday deals online) and you won't have to go over 1000$
really like everything in this pc might give a go at building but changing to quad core and bit more memory 4gb found all that for £470
