Well, you can see what I have in my sig. I'm real tired of getting abused by better computer hardware and lesser players. I was thinking of getting either a 6600GT or a 6800 both for AGP.

Then I read of how this game is CPU intensive.
 
2500+ should be just fine get whichever one you can afford 6600GT or 6800 lots of posts on which one is better lots of different opinions due to cost and performance. jus search. that'll be a good step up from your ti4200
 
The 6600GT or the 6800nu are the best bang for the buck. As to which one you need, that all depends on the resolution you plan on running it at. At low to medium resolutions, they are basically the same, meaning within 5% of each other. At higher resolutions with all the eye candy turned on, the 6800nu starts to pull away.

If you can catch it when it is instock, I would recommend the BFG 6800OC from Outpost.com for only $250...

Here are my results with a 6600 gt, radeon 9700 pro and a gf4 ti4200:-

sempron 3100
forceware 71.20
catalyst 4.12

(6600 gt/radeon 9700 pro/ti4200)

convoy = 52,53,44
colossus = 108,110,102
bridge of fate = 109,112,94
rankin = 79, 81,77
torlan = 72, 75,58

4x8

convoy = 52,52,14
colossus = 108,106,30
bridge of fate = 109,99,31
rankin = 79,79,26
torlan = 72,58,15
 
nemesismk2,
Does 4x8 have something to do with Anti-aliesing? Sorry, but I never looked into that as you can well imagine why.
I have a pair of LCDs so I'd like to go the max with 1280x1024.
