the gf2 pro will outperform the radeon.
other things to consider are
- win2k/win xp. unless things have changed, radeon just doesn't work as well
- 2d quality. radeon has excellent 2d quality. with gf2, about 1024x768 your mileage will vary depending on the manufacturer. elsa is fine, but I dunno bout leadtek.
- gainward makes a 64mb gf2 pro (CARDEXPERT V87 Geforce2 PRO/450 4.5ns GPU, 64mb 128bit DDR, with TV out) you can find for under $150. dunno bout the 2d qual (I asked on this forum and rec'd no response), but with 4.5ns ram, it's basically an ultra for $150. the extra 32mb ram would make it worth the extra $15-20 by itself...
