Man! How many times do I have to tell u Under_u! GEFORCE3!!

No really! If I was in your possition i would buy the Gforce 3! I mean...

For example, in ePSXe u can get 100 Fps playing at 1280*1024 in 32Bits!!

And that's really something. And besides, if u DO buy the GeForce 3 will be spending more time at u're home!

Yeah, go for the Geforce3 so you will stay more time without being outdated.

i think you should also set aside some money to buy the rest of the computer set.

but seriously, it would all depend on how you would mostly use your computer for. is it exclusively for gaming? or will it be just a weekend gaming machine, and for the most part just a word processing box? if it's the latter, then i suggest a GEForce2. it'll give you enough gaming performance until at least prices for GE3 drop a bit more.
