I see that on some for the higher end machines people are still getting the slowdown of the cursor on the strategy map, I wonder why?
Because they only look "higher end" compared to yours. Most of the people posting have low- to mid-level CPU power coupled with even lower level graphics cards, and their systems appear to be untweaked.

I play at 1600x1200x32 with all graphic settings maxed no issues whatsover, save during experimentation, I noticed very slight slowing with an insane number of units. I plan on upgrading the GPU (depending on how HL2 plays) and changing over to water-cooling at some point (hoping to push the 2.4c up to 3.4 or better).

BTW, how much $US did you pay for that GF Ti 4200???
