If you want NVidia, then the GF4Ti4600 would be a good choice.

From what i've seen in the bug reports so far TI 4200 is outperforming everything else.

4200 is fine. 64MB version, as the 128MB version uses slower RAM.
Oh,.don't go by the performance stats in the AH2 bug forum. The game is not ready to be evaluated at that level. It's a BETA.
