Simple answer is no,

you will be able to run crysis at

640 x 400 all on low and it will look like Sh!t ;)

So do you want to upgrade?

If you swapped the 8600Gts for a 8800Gt

also if you can afford a P35 chipset instead of the G31 chipset you have now it would a lot better ;)

With those changes you PC will run crysis fine

IF you want Heartbone posted a thread a few weeks ago about building a $500 PC have a look at that if you want

On both of those motherboards you need to have 2 sticks of RAM for duel-channel to work.
