Far Cry 2 supports both DirectX 9 and DirectX10 and its graphics engine is much lighter than the one used by the Crysis game. This allows most of the graphics cards to perform nicely, even at 1920x1200 with 16xAA/16xAF enabled. But let's see what the Inno3D GT210 and Gainward GT220 solutions can do here.
Unfortunately, the Inno3D GT210 is still very weak. In the DX9 mode and with the resolution set at 1280x1024, the card managed to give an average FPS of just 17.22, using the lowest visual details available. As you realize, choosing the the DX10 mode and increasing the visual/resolution settings is out of question here..
On the other hand, the more powerful Gainward GT220 gave better results and could give you a more acceptable performance even at 1920 x 1080, as soon as you select the "High" visual detail settings.
