You could buy a Celeron 566 and OC it to 850, or 952 (112 FSB) and buy a Radeon DDR LE for about $150 or so(total for both), combined less than a Geforce 2 GTS. Granted, the Celeron doesn't compare to the PIII, but it is a lot cheaper (only $55). Also the Radeon DDR LE doesn't have the pure FPS as the GTS, however, it is very good in 32 bit applications, has the "best" dvd playback (in many people's opinions), and has one of the best 2d image quality.
