If your on a tight budget you can just run to frys and get a cheap mobo combo for under 80 bucks. Plus you wont have to upgrade your ram at the same time either if you get a k7s5a. those boards support both ddr and sdram. I did that when I had an old 900 mhz duron. OMG the diff. in performance was like night and day and it only costed me 90 bucks to do it at the time. Then you can later on upgrade the ram, the mobo(k7s5a isn't a very good board) vid card and etc after that.
EDIT: That same mobo combo I got now only costs like 65 bucks. It was an athlon 220 and k7s5a pro. I would also maybe hold on to that vid card for a little longer. I think it may still have enough power to play farcry.
