I was just going to start a thread asking about something like this... So I might as well ask here! :)
I have an AthlonXP 2400+, with 256mb of PC2700 RAM, inside is a AGP (x8) Geforce FX 5600 128mb GFX card ... Anyway, it plays most games fine (Even King Kong), but, I was browsing through Gamestation and I came across Farcry, I've always wanted to play the game, and for £7.99, I thought I'd give it a go!
Anyway, The game runs like pap on my spec above, it's sorta playable with the lowest settings applied, but it still does have trouble when there's a few things happening on the screen, which spoils it!
Anyway, barring more memory (Which I know it needs), what other (non-mortgage busting) hardware can I invest in to bring the game up to speed without a complete upgrade?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: Forgot to mention that it's built on an ASUS A7V8X-X Motherboard! :)
