GF3 TI 500, TI200, Radeon 8500 on an LCD

I'll be building one of the new Northwood systems shortly, and want a video card that matches the speed of the system pretty well. I don't need the speed as much as the quality. I have an lcd, and probably don't want to run more than 60fps anyway because of ghosting. Using the highest marks for fsaa and antistropic filtering, can a TI200 or 8500 maintain smooth framerates? For the people that have used both, which card provides the overall best appearance.
 
hi,
i'm using a gf3ti200 on a viewsonic vg181 (and xp1700+, 512 mb ddr ram) and can play all modern games that i've tried (rtcw, max payne, mohaa, counterstrike, etc. ) without a problem with framerate or smooth viewing. since my card is the slowest of the ones that you've mentioned, i'd say that any of them would work well for you.
good luck

edit *************
i should add that this is on the digital output, not that that should make a much of a diference other than perhaps a small image quality increase
 
I'm using a Ti200 right now at 1280x1024 with no problems whatsoever. But then again I don't use fsaa for anything. I think games look much better at 1280x1024 without.
