Do I have to ....... ?

Your CPU is a little on the weak side. I suggest at least a 4200 to get P4 3.0 Ghz performance. Until then, turn down the game graphics settings until you get the performance you can live with.

Post what graphics settings you're using in-game and on your card so that you can get better advice.

Turning down the anti-alaising settings on your card, as well as the environmental effects in-game seem to make the biggest difference for me. But then again, that's me. If you give everyone your specifics to work with, I'm sure you'll get some good advice.

If you have Anisotropic Filtering set to 16x, turn it down to 4x (in your ATI control panel)...made all the difference for me.

ATI user here, 9800XT, yup, that old. 1280*960 with all sliders up, but all boxes unticked except 'Volumetric fog', gives a good 20-30fps... very playable. 1 gig ram, 2.8mhz cpu.

I would have thought the x700 would have punched some better results? And yes, turn off ALL Anisotropic and antaliasing. Do that in the ATI control panel.
