Should I get a Asus Geforce2 MX or Radeon 32MB DDR for this system?

Hi,
My Voodoo3 3500 has gone nutso on me so I need to replace it and am considering these two cards, the Asus Geforce2 MX and Radeon 32MB DDR. I hear that Radeon's are better in game especially in higher resolution but that Asus has much better drivers. They are pretty close in price taking into account the buy.com coupons. Here is my system below..which should I get? I usually play games such as UT, Diablo II, and Q3A. Thanks.

The radeon would probably look better for those games you mentioned, but the win2k drivers are not very good for the radeon. You can use beta drivers though, which have much improved win2k performance. Maybe you should just flip a coin or something, you really can't go wrong with either card.

I would go with the MX, it's cheaper, sweet drivers, more overclockable. To me, slightly better image quality I don't really notice anyway so I went with the GeForce2 MX.

Is there a problem with the AGP socket for the K7V? I once read somewhere that a bios update will correct that?
Thanks

This is a joke right? The MX better than the Radeon? It WAS funny though.

For win2k yes MX would be better. Even a voodoo 4 would be better.
