the p4 is definately bottlenecking you. how much ram do you have? To be honest I'm amazed your getting the frame rate you are. Based on what you have listed I would up the video card. You don't have the money for it, but I would go with a new system. Save up as you can at least move over the same video card, but you'll likely need a new mobo and processor to make anything that will play the game well. |

you can get core 2 duo's for under $200. Just make sure it's compatible with your mobo |
