Radeon 32 SDR Benchmarks?

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.

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.
