Best Graphics Cards For The Money: June '09
This month, ATI's new Radeon HD 4770 is missing in action, since online stores are not only unable to keep it in stock, but also de-listing it completely. With violent movements in pricing, though, it'd have been taken off the recommended list anyway. Read more

I installed SC4 today onto my new machine (which has been running dual EVE Online clients, and Halflife 2, on full graphics settings flawlessly), and its performing appallingly.
My new machine is:
Intel Core2Duo E6600
Asus P6B Deluxe
4 GB Corsair DDR2800 RAM
Radeon X1950 Pro 521mb graphics
WD Raptor 150gb SATA hard drive
Creative XiFi soundcard
The game defaults to maximum graphics settings, and I have all drivers completely up to date, but the CPUs run around 80% capacity, the graphics are very jerky, and the sound is jerky and staticy. I have the game patched to the latest version.
Any ideas on the problem? EAs tech support are yet to get back to me 
I have the same problem.
But if you turn shadows on Low everything should be all right. 
The graphic is not very good but it work. 
I have C2D E6600
MSI 975X Platinum Power Up
ATi Radeon X1950XTX
2GB RAM
