For an AMD K6-2, I would take a Voodoo 3 2000.
Cheap, silk smooth installation, 3DNow optimised drivers, low CPU dependence, decent performance in games.
It is what I have now. And I think it's great.
Take cheap now, you'll be able to save money for a bigger config later on. Anyway, even if Duron and TBirds are considered cheap, I don't think they'll come to the K6-2 price level before a while.
Even the original Athlon.
And whether you take a K6 or an Athlon, you will most probably have to change the mobo anyway, so...
Maybe the celly would have been better for upgrade.

A big thanks to MS's Vista for making me look into Linux distros!
