    This site is better than system lab requirements...u can use it to check how your system will handle a game.

    the site: http://www.yougamers.com/games/

    Especially for Crysis fans

    I know ;) I've been on that site since it's initial launch, mainly because they were doing a contest , whoever could create the best yougamers page would win an Alienware notebook.. But it turns out that they're a nice place to check your PCs performance, and it even takes into account your CPU OC.

    That site IS LAME imo... just because they rate crysis at 4 stars :) lol

    Well, the website looks quite nice, and its nice they set their give advice minimum and recommended settings. The only thing I don't like is the way the results are shown, I cannot graps quickly the results... but nevertheless is good.

    Hmm, it's not too bad. I still prefer System Requirements Lab better though.
