I have played all of those games on max settings with no issues on my desktop.

You would be fine building a PC for approximately $1500. No need to spend 6 grand anymore.

My desktop does dual displays no problem. Crysis used to be used as kind of a "benchmark" for PC performance because it is so graphics intense. Some people still use it, and some have moved away from it. I guess I still tend to view it as that. The sequels were not as rough on the GPU requirements as the original though, from what I have read. You can find lots of comparisons out there for different games on ultra/max settings, what card was used, and what the FPS was. Overall, it's better to have a good AVERAGE FPS in games instead of one that peaks at a super high number but drops when things get intense.

With my GeForce 680, I've played Crysis and it did fine. I've also played quite a few intense first person shooter games at Ultra and have done just fine.
