But then I guess running Crysis in all its glory is still an impossible task for now.

Motion blur works better in DX10 but is messed up in DX9. The lighting is also different if you use the dx10 hack. I can play crysis maxed no AA @1280x1024 with my 8800GTS 512

not to messed up in my opinion! But, try for yourself and see

Anyways, how can you max out crysis with a single 8800gts? I had 8800GT sli before, and they could not max out crysis, even with the dx10 hack! At least not playable enough for me. This was with a Q6600 @ 3.6ghz.
