PC133 vs PC2100

How much performance difference would I see in games between PC133 and PC2100? Im debating whether I want to start hounding my parents for a new CPU/Mobo/Ram or a new GF3. I find it is best to start on the X-mas present hounding early and I just want to know what will yield the best gaming benifits. I was thinking either the GF3 or an A7A or M 266 w/ a 1400Mhz chip and 256mb of ram. Any opinions?
thanks,

if your going with a new MOBO and not upgrading an older one, there is NO reason not to get DDR ram. It is the same price (even cheaper in some places) than SDR.

Nuff said.
 
I'd go for the GeForce3 and wait for 2GHz+ CPU.

By the way, could you successfully install SP2 for Win2k using that A7V? I keep getting INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE after I install it and reboot. Only solution is taking SP2 out. But then Max Payne won't work ...
