Got a GeforceFX 5200, and the frame rate is basically steady at 45ish at all detail levels, but it stutters alot at the highest detail settings so I have to turn them down a bit.

Well, we won't be able to see the most recent graphics cards' real potential until more games that utilize DirectX9.0 and higher start coming out, like Half-life2 and Doom3.

Dunno, the rest of my system is a Athlon XP 1.5gigs, with 512 megs of RAM.  The CPU is getting a little long in the tooth though so that might have something to do with it.

PNY GeForce 4 Ti4400

1600x1200 res sliders 75%  all box's checked

shift+f1  58 fps pretty steady

shift+f2  68 to 75 steady

shift+f3  80 to 100+

so far I prefer the shift+f2 as it gets rid of the blinking  tree syndrome on my end.  

shift+f3 is useless take far to much distance away and makes everything look really crappy.

Results seem to vary from patch to patch  this was done on beta 13, has been higher and has been lower.

Hope this helps in any way.

Really not that surprizing since the FX5200 performs only slightly better than the old GF4MX series.
