from looking at the list your "thing" would be better off with the fx5200 i have heard good things about this card and it wont let u down i myself have the 5600 and i think the fx range is the best yet from nvidia

I'd second that quite happily!

I'm more than happy with my FX5600, worth the extra IMHO.

Ati cards (the 9000 series) tend to out perform their Nvidia competitors, however, stability of Ati's drivers seems to be a very much hit and miss affair......

I'm more than convinced I made the right choice with my card, something my friend with a constantly crashing Ati machine seems to agree with!

You pays yer money, you takes yer choice ultimately.

I personally use a Ti4600, and I'm delighted with the performance I get in both FS2k2 and CFS3.

i use a 5200 myself and am more than pleased with it. never had a problem with fps or anything else with the new drivers from nvidia.

Get better performance with a TI 4200. Get one with 64 megs of RAM and overclock it straight to hell. :p Get a good 200 mhz overclock out of it. You'll get performance way past the FX 5200 (it actually performs similar to a GF4 MX440, I have evidence).

The 8500 and the FX5200 will be close, try them both and see the comparitive FPS.

The 8500 performs well past the MX 440, Chi - San.

ti 4200 or FX5200 - I'd go for a high end FX5200, they will better a ti4200 with added support for DX9 - The MX440.... Based on very slow GF2 technology - no way upto or past any 8500 / FX5200

On the same machine, an fx5200 scored 7000 3D marks and a TI4200 scored 12000 3D marks    ::)  :o  ;)
