umm wait a few weeks and go for the rage fury or rage magnum.These cards are already down to 120.00us and blow away the cards you are looking at.As soon as the tnt2 and savage4 comes out(a coupla weeks)the price should drop under 100.00us.This card supports 2d\3d has 32mb ram onboard a hardware dvd decoder,and full opengl icd.This means you can play games like q2 and half-life without a video accelerator like the voodoo 2.Also gives good upgrade options IE:if you wanna go dvd in the future you can purchase a bare dvd drive for around 70.00us without buying a whole kit(200.00us).Saves you money on buying a vid accelerator and keeps a pci slot open for something else.The only drawback is ATI's drivers are a little weak right now ,but this should change.The voodoo3 also gives you similar options but does not support a dvd decoder and cannot do 32bit color
