Thank gosh I don't need DX10. Nothing against vista, I just don't want to buy a new operating system

Thanks Crytek, but I believe we have been doing this since the Crysis demo came out.

(I tested myself DX10 very high vs. DX9 modded configs, and if anyone can show me a difference between the two I'll be damned)
DX10 = SM 4.0

SM 3.0 looks great in AoC. Wonder what SM 4.0 will do for skins in new games.

Seriously Crytek, after all that BS you put out about Crysis, who in their right mind would believe a single word you've said? Shut up and work on the game, when it's done release it...and pray to God that someone will give your company another chance.

Actually I built my brother-in-law a system using an 8600GT, and even with a stock AMD X2 is still did just fine with High @1024x768. Not great, but really not all that choppy either. Perfectly playable for a casual gamer.
