It's funny how all of the suggestions were PCI cards when you need an AGP card. Instead of saying $70+ you should have just stated your max. Best AGP cards in the sub $100 range would be the NVIDIA 7600GS or the ATI 2600Pro, brands can vary. If your current power supply is good enough you can build a newer rig for $200-300. That's considering newer RAM because I doubt you're currently using DDR2.

I can run it between min and max settings... gpu (an 8 series) holding me back apparently...

The only thing that keeps me from running this at max reccomended is my lack of a 8800... Im not spending anohter 200+ for a vid card to play this game at "UBERHIGH". Seems like its the 8800's designer game.

I can run the rest of my games at "ultimate/veryhigh/high" on all settings... why me worry?

Im more happy with my PS3 and playing all of my games rather than looking really pretty on crysis
