best card for FS2004

[nali]

Can anyone suggest a good card for playing FS2004, preferably around the $200 level? I havent seen any benchmarks for FS on any of the card reviews.

9800 non-pro if you can find one, otherwise 9700 Pro. For FS2004 though, a 9600 Pro performs the same as a 9800XT... ATI cards are more CPU/motherboard/RAM limited in that game. AnandTech tested it... the test was done without weather though... so who knows how things change with the new clouds and whatnot. I have a FX5900 and I run FX2004 just fine... it doesn't seem to make a difference whether I have AA or AF on or not... which would suggest with my FX5900 it's also being limited by the CPU/motherboard/RAM.
