Vid card or CPU what's best bang for me?

ok got a 750MHZ PIII and a Geforce2 mx what would give me the bigest boost in perceptable preformance? If a Vid card should I wait for the new Titanium Nvidia cards? the GeForce3 Ti 200 looks interesting.
 
Getting a Geforce3 would give you a swift upgrade for most FPS games. Anything faster would be icing on the cake.

Your CPU is OK but you should probably overclock it a bit to get extra performance as some of the newest games might run a tad slow on it.

Otherwise your video card is by far the biggest bottleneck. A GF2 Pro for ~$120 will give you a lot of extra performance.
 
Depends on what your doing. Most games (not all) would prefer the faster video card, as would some CAD apps. Besides that virtually everything else would prefer the faster processor.
 
Hmmm a Vid card then. I'm mostly a gamer with MS office 2K and Quicken and a few other odds and ends. Thanks! you help me decide!
