A phenom quadcore 9950 black edition is hardly a weak point, and as for the card, on StalkerCS it worked better than anything nvidia had to offer then and franckly since i run both crysis on max setting with 40 to 45 fps at all time (gpu-z and cpu-z recording) i ll say i'm still running a system that more than above average here and still in the overkill zone for most game,

More importantly though, if i sold cars where i simply didn't bother to make the fifth gear work, i would be sued and go bankrupt real fast, because issues of quality matter in all sectors in most industries, and so, are watch and legaly monitored.

Movies, toys, electronic equipements, all that is under regulations to offer what it suppose to offer on purchase; video games sadly is one of the very rare industry that is lagging behind.

The price of a new game cost me around 2 hours work as an estimated compare to my salary, why should i accept to part with money that costed me 2 hours of work (and i know i'm privileged here as it cost some people 4 or 5 hours work or more, but value of money doesn't diminish with age in my case) for a product that doesn't deliver what it was suppose to deliver ?

do not tell me a game running under 30 fps with above recommended spec on all minimum setting and resolution is a game that give you what you are paying for. There is a line between apriciation of quality and objective judgement. If you had a "playable" time with it doesn't mean that all the other that you see complaining of unplayablility are wrong about how bad the game is optimised, even serious website like [hard]ocp warn against it!

If this game is significantly better on nvidia hardware (witch on my second pc isn't true) why isn't this written on the box?( especialy a specific brand of nvidia!!)

why wasn't i aware that i was paying for a product that make patch designated for a specific brand ? (though the shader issue for ati card was fix there, but that about it)

A very small percentage of poeple are happy with this game , and the rest, feels cheated out of there money by a compagny imcompetencie to provide an actual product.

If you have come to accept that a high end pc costing hundreds of pounds more than the recomended system runs at ONLY 20 fps, then my friend, you have become a sheep, and you will join the herd of those that accept to pay subpart games and then defend them, even minimize their flaws, forgeting that, in truce, YOU are the customer, and you should never accept a product that simply isn't finnished.

PS: No multicore support in this sort of game is shamefull and lazy, defend this decision and the fact they didn't even bother to rectify it yet and you will be only good enought to buy yourself a fanboi tshirt my dear sheep.
