nVidia Rocks my world. Though my 16MegTNT card is ageing it STILL kicks
ass. I'll be getting another card pretty soon. Should I get it now or wait
a few more month for some better ones to hit the market?? Comments?

Depends on your CPU, The regular TNT is good for anything up to a K6-2 500.
The CPU becomes a bottleneck that no video card will help. If you have a
faster CPU, than a TNT2 Ultra kicks butt.

I just got a very good deal on a Leadtek GeForce SDR (high overclock
potential). As you point out, there's little reason to upgrade yet.

How much time do you spend playing games? How much more enjoyment will
you get for your $$$? Probably not much at the moment, but maybe you
have lots of $$$...

You sure got that right!

With the SAME V770 Ultra, I've had Celeron 300a @ 450, PIII-450 @500, and
now you oughtta SEE this: PIII 550E (SECC2) @ 733/133 (PCI=1/4-AGP=2/3).
With these settings, the PCI and AGP busses are clocked normal on Abit
BE6-II. V770 U is NOT overclocked either. I have seen very noticeable
performance gains with each processor upgrade. I got no beef with Intel
chips!!!!
