Hi,

I'm just wondering how much a performance increase I would get by
getting a V3 3000 and getting rid of my 8 meg V2 on my P2-300 w/ 64 megs
of RAM.  Is it worth getting?  I can sell my V2 for $60 to someone,
since they've already asked for it.  My main concern is for Halflife,
since I'll be playing a lot of TFC and probably UT and Q3 when it comes
out.  And please don't tell me to get a TNT2.  I just want to know if a
V3 is worth the upgrade from an 8 meg V2 on a P2-300.

Thanks,
Tim
