Will these specs run FS2004 well on my computer? For example, how would the anti-aliasing be? Smooth, or kind of rough. I've seen some screenshots on the Freeware Screenshots forum and the anti-aliasing is sooo good and the background is also smooth. With my TNT2 card... Embarrassed

I get very rough anti-aliasing (even though the anti-aliasing setting is on), and the background (like a couple all buildings or trees) is very rough. It's like I'm seeing them with a magnifying glass.

Will these specs run well?:

Pentium 4 (2.53 GHz)
512 MB of RAM
GeForce FX5200 128 MB

you should buy at least a FX 5600 or an ATI 9500pro. the 5200 is too slow for the rest of your machine.

I disagree!

Sure an FX5600 would be nice! (I've got one!) but combined with Super_Game's cpu which is considerably better than my Celeron, I'd think he'll get great results from the FX5200.

Anti alaising set to 2x (no higher!) should produce nice results.

Shop around, the FX's are dropping all the time in price, you may well get a cheap FX5600 for little more than the launch price of the FX5200......
