Does anyone have benchmarks for one of these cards? I am building an Athlon T-Bird 800 value system and I'm trying to decide which video card to put in for now. I've pretty much narrowed it down to the VisionTek GeForce2 MX for $100 and the ATI Radeon SDR for $138. I've heard that the Radeon has better image quality, both 3d and 2d. But the GeForce2 MX is cheaper. I haven't seen any performance comparisons between the two, though. I'll play mostly Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, and Need For Speed. Any advice would be appreciated.

Here is a review:

But if you can stretch your money out just a little bit, the Radeon 32mb DDR can be found at a Best Buy store near you for $199 - $30 rebate. Or if you have a Fry's electronics you can find it for 199 - $50 rebate!

I am picking one up today from Best Buy for $169 - $25 gift card that I have.. :)

You will be much happier with DDR.

Also, I hear that the Geforce2 cards have problems with the KT133 boards out there. Although it may just be the detonator drivers... <shrug>

Something to keep in mind.
