I have run nothing but NVida cards and not had any issues at all with them. I have used the 5200, 5500 and now the 6200 OC 256MB. These cards have performed well for me. I have not gone much higher in the cards because it requires a larger power supply and I'm not willing to part with my money for that card/power supply combo. I will when absolutely necessary. :rock:

Everyone should check their virtual memory. SH3 is a memory hog and does not hesitate to start swapping between the hard drive. I do not care what video card you have...if the game is swapping and looking for memory off the hard driver, your game will not run well:nope:

I have an eGeForce 7600GS 256MB PCI-E I bought back in June. It works wonderfully and was the best bang for the buck at the time.:up:

I had tried an ATI card before then and was reminded why I always had Nvidia. Screen flicker on startup was one of my main qualms.

Anyway, SHIII runs perfectly on my card.

Can you elaborate on this? I found SH3 benefited from turning AA and AF on but that should be true regardless of the card's manufacturer, so I'm not sure what you're describing.
