I'm finally getting round to ordering a new graphics card as my 32 MB one isn't up to the task on this game(plays around 1/4 speed).What cards are people using and do the graphics get anywhere close to those on the intro ie the B52's,scuds launching etc?

There is a massive difference on mine-matchstick men and grainy backgrounds.

No probs at all here with my 128MB Radeon 9600TX (basically a 9500pro).

Thanks all-my budget was limited to around £70 so I went for the Radeon Sapphire 9000 which cost a few pence over inc delivery from here(it's the 4th one on the screen).Should be here next week.
