The GeForce 2 is a nice solid 3D card with plenty of power in any incarnation. I'm running an Ultra but they're probably still a bit on the expensive side. You could always try the GTS or even the MX. I'm not entirely sure what prices are like but I'm sure a quick paddle with a search engine will tell you all you need to know.

I'm not sure anyone can confirm this, but heard there was a problem with Geforce cards and older power supplies. Also some people say such a fast graphics card with P2 is pointless as the processor won't be able to keep up. Any thoughts?

BTW aria.co.uk are doing 32MB TNT2's for £25 and 32MB Geforce 2 Mx for about £40.
