Guillemot.

But I don't you think you will get much improvement doing this.
You better upgrade cpu to k6-2 350 (if your mb supports) and keep using
riva128.

>and the price is actually 15 US dollar more for the Guillemot.


Best Buy has Guillemot for $109. Fry's has it for $119.
After rebate, Guillemot is cheaper than CL.
