Ti4200 supports 8x.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

I have a 5200mx. How much are you selling for? By the way I'm in the U.S. so hopefully shipping costs aren't a whole lot.

That's not true. Just because the FX has a newer chipset doesn't make it a better card.
To put it in perspective: a 4800 would run something like HL2 better, but it can't run BF2 period, since it's missing registers that exist in the FX chipset. However, in HL2, the 4800 wouldn't render all the effects that the 5200 would have.
I wouldn't suggest buying a GF4 is you have an FX card (or buying an FX card if you have a GF4), just wait a little longer and get a newer card, since there'd be really no advantage at this point for either cards regarding the games that are coming out.
