If you have the duckies, the 6800GT rocks.

Barring that, ATI x800XL

I used the www.anandtech.com performance guide to pick my chip, the 3200 was the right chip for the right price, there was no way I could justify 100$ more for the jump to the 3500 for all of 5 FPS.
And I have been trying to determine exactly what the right Video Card Brigantia and I will be.

The 6800GT is smoking, but I am leaning more towards the X800xl since it has better Half-Life numbers, and I love me some HL2 and the mods for it!

The game was running great last night so I think new vid cards will be a couple months out :D

LOL Murr looks like the same set-up I had put in yesterday too but I have 3GB of memory. Mainly because I have nothing better to spend my money on. Also the 6800GT rocks. Put that one in Sunday. Then again you know what I was running so anything is better then that.
