The GeForce3 is much faster, but the noise it made was unbearable to 
me. It's a strange mid-range goofy whine that sounds like it's 
originating INSIDE your ears, like when your ears suddenly pop and 
ring...just like that, but way louder.

I used it for a day and replaced it....but then I ordered another one 
after I sold it, to see if it was just problem with the card I had 
used, but the new card was exactly the same.

The radeon 7500 gets great framerates in q3a, and has no fan, but 
manages to stay cooler than the GeForce2 MX. (I test it with my 
fingers.)
