I've seen benchmarks comparing these > cards amongst themselves, but never against the 128 Rage. I think you answered your own question already. If you find 128 Rage perfectly fine, then I see absolutely no reason to upgrade. The only thing I would do in your shoes is to keep my eyes open in case a cheap 2MX or Radeon pops up - I think they will get even more scarce in the future, and who knows, maybe one day you would like to have a more powerful card.
