well, i would disagree.

if its not to late, ide go for the KyroII. when i went for a cheap and cheerful graphics card, that was my first choice, but they didnt have any in stock so i just took the GF2 i have now.

i had the Kyro, and it done me proud, and still is in my second system.

i suggest you have a look at some benchmarks comparing the kyroII and GF2 range. that will make your mind up.
