im using a Ti4800 and still find when there's a lot on screen sim city 4
scrolls pretty slowly, probably bad game engine imo


SimCity 4 is an extraordinary CPU hog - how fast is the computer you
want to put the FX5200 into? The 8500 is a pretty decent card if you
stick to resolutions of 1024x768 or lower for most things, but if you
have a slower processing subsystem or small amount of memory (SC4 also
eats memory like some sort of crazy memory eating machine) it might
not make any difference whatsoever.
