I can't decide for you.

The big advantage of a GeForce [whatever] to a TNT [whatever] is the T&L
setup - something that makes FGFS much faster. But the difference in
speed depends totally on your CPU. I guess that a TNT2Ultra might be
faster than a GeForce2MX on a 2 GHz Athlon. But on a Pentium 100 the
GeForce2MX is much faster.

If FGFS runs fast enough for you on your TNT2U, why should you change
it? Wait a bit longer and save a bit more money. Then you'll perhaps get
GeFroce2Ti for a bit more. Or even a GeForce3 or whatever. Time is
working for you (and after you've bought it it's sort of working against
you...)

CU,
Christian
