Can you save up around $25 more? I'd recommend a ti200. I bought a Gainward GeForce3 ti200 Golden Sample from newegg for $175 shipped and it EASILY overclocks to regular GeForce3 speeds and will go quite a bit further. (All with stock cooling)
ATI Radeon 7500 is quite impressive for only $109? at newegg. It outperforms the Geforce2 Ultra according to a few reviews I read. Quite impressive consdiering the GF2 Ultra is $180. Unless you want to have the latest technology, I'd go with the 7500 and save a good $60 over the GF3 TI200.

That's a PCI card, he probably doesn't have AGP. Get a Geforce 2MX 200 PCI for about 99 bucks.

Well if he's talking PCI, then why not the MX400? Last I heard MX200's were a disgrace to the GeForce name.
KYRO II 4500 64MB for $84 at newegg.com
And pick up a agp mobo.

The person who said, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, it matters how you play the game never played counter strike.

Come talk to some sharky members here, and there's OT
the Radeon 64 meg PCI card is a solid card, it ran RTCW pretty damn well coupled with a Pentium 3 533 when i was at my dads for Thanksgiving. Had most of the eye candy on as well.
------------------
Athlon 1.33gig 266fsb
ASUS A7M266 mobo
256 megs PC2100 DDR-RAM
Voodoo 5 5500
Philips Acoustic Edge
10 gig Maxtor, 13 gig Quantum Fireball.
Enlight 7237 Case
ThermoEngine HSF
WinXp Pro
That may be true but a mobo upgrade sure would be a huge plus.
You do need an AGP slot if you plan to upgrade later.. and a Kyro 2 is a great card. The combo shoud get him at least 6 months of good gameplay. .
