Niiiice my steup will be similar to yours but I'll probably have an E8400 @3.6-3.8 and the 4850. I'll also be playing at 1200X1024 since my monitor only goes up that high lol, well maybe 1600x1200. Very good to see that it can handle crysis with no problem =) and at very high no less.finished my build :D
I have an E8400 @ Stock and I'm getting a 4850 soon :D



Can't wait now :P
Looks like it's running fine. It would be awesome to see how far the OC's could go.
[QUOTE=''Luminouslight'']Looks like it's running fine.

And those are just initial OC's!

how do you do the dx9 very high tweak for crysis? is it simple?

yh, u go on google and search ''crysis taowolf'' and a forum thread should appear, allong with the dl link for it, trust me, it looks and runs better than vhigh dx10, and its rly simple, just copy paste the cvar groups files into the place of ur original ones...
could i run it well with my specs? see below
a 9600 gt can do it fine, so ur system will have NO trouble at all ;)
beautiful and one last question (sorry)- does this tweak automatically put u into dx9 mode in crysis or do you have to manually do it before crysis boosts (since I have vista)?
This gets me all excited about OC'ing. If I get 10fps+ like you said, I'll be in the 30fps+ range, on very high, 1680res. I'll be content. Good news. I'm glad you're enjoying your build. You seem very happy. Awesome. :)

look, i cant transfer the photos from the phone to the pc, but ive taken a screenie with the system info (also, notice the temp on the 4850 )
btw, i lol'd when i say the memory bandwidth xD

does ''jet taking off'' sound right to you? its rly loud, but i dont care, since, when i game/benchmark (or do anything for that matter) i wear a noise cancelling headset, so i dont worry bout noise, anyways, the V1 has those EXACT temps (~40-55) with the 6600 at stock, yet the V1's fan was just at a mere 30%, hell, the cooler is designed to run from 1300 to 2k rpm, yet i have mine at just 800 rpm(!!!)

[/QUOTE] Sounds good man. Anything is quieter than an HD4870 at 75%+ fan speed. :P :lol: Man, that thing is loud. Max 2000 rpm is perfect. You're set for OC'ing. ;) :)
