The games that operate ok are all older games (using DX8? im not too sure about HW2), the games that go bad are newer titles using DX9. It could be related to that. I have no personal experience with the videocard you have.

you bottleneck would be your video card. Get a Radeon X800 XT or nVidia 6800 Ultra. Then your rig will smoke.

LOL! That's a rather expensive solution to the problem.

What FPS are you calling bad in a game like FarCry? Give us a measure.

In Farcry FPS is not higher then 20 (max) exterior , inside buildings is better 25-35, but even if I would have slower grafic card (Ti 4200 , R9600) it should run like crazy in lower details but its the same , doesnt matter SUPER ULTRA HIGH or TURBO LOW I get same number of FPS!!!
Like Britnye said : CRAZYYYYYY )

really does sound more like a DX9 problem than anything else..... try different drivers to see if that helps but ultimately see if u can get yur mits on a 9800pro if u know a mate with one..... I reckon u will see a difference
