    Well, I recieved my new MSI geforce 4 ti4200 64 MB card in the mail yesterday....( 222 $ Canadian )
    On some games like soldier of fortune 2 ,not much diff in performance. I was able to crank in a few extra eye-candy settings, without any framerate loss.
    Need for Speed - high stakes 2, looks much better, sharper looking cars, smoother gameplay ...much better overall.
    This card really shined in all it's glory with Rallisport Challenge...I almost got a hard on, when I saw how beautiful this game runs and looks. It looks spectaclar !

    Same for the illegal Doom 3 alpha demo - ok, it runs really slow, but it looks super...

    Thanks for all the sound advice !
