Get GeForce 3, it's way better. It has a lot new features that will make games look much better. Run 3dmark2001 with G3 and G2U and you will like G3 much more.

Dude, if you can afford a geforce 3 then get it!

Here's an excellent article: http://www.procooling.com/reviews/html/visiontek-geforce_3.shtml from Pro Cooling comparing the GF3 and the GF2Ultra; lots of well-designed benchmarks and a good article in general. His conclusion gives a good run-down of the pros and cons of getting either card.

For myself, I would get the GF3, since it's more about new technology than raw speed, but I would wait. If I had to get a card right now, I would spend a couple hundred at the most on a good card, and would probably save more than that by getting the GF3 later (not to mention having the applications to justify it then).

Here is another faceoff review of both cards;

Personally I like the Visiontek Ge Force 3, it comes w/ TV out.
