Just picked up a PII motherboard and accessories, and am looking at
upgrading both my video and sound cards...

Does anyone have any recommendations on which way to go?  

for instance, I have an older ATI 4MB PCI video card...thinking going TV
tuner/AGP...is the ATI card any good?  I haven't heard much about them in
this list, but that could be more that nobody has ever had problems with
them then anything else...

Similar with Sound...have a SB AWE/32 right now (I think)...is there
something better that I should look at?  I've heard mention of the SB128
card, being currently unsupported, but will it work in a 'compatibility'
mode, and then once support gets in, work all that much better?

Thanks...
