What speed increase could I expect by switching from a GF1 with 32MB DDR
RAM to a "plain" FX5700 with 128?


That depends on whether you have a CPU of the same era as your GF1, if

that
is the case then don't expect much better performance at all. The only
difference is you'll be able to run at higher res with FSAA and things

like
that on, but your CPU will be a fat bottleneck.


How will a PIII / 1,2GHZ handle it? Or do I need something closer to the
double of that.

Dude, a P3 1.2 GHz is not NEARLY enough for that card. A FX 5200 would max
that piece of ****.

But like I said, if you got the FX 5700 then you would be able to run all
your games with 4xFSAA and 8 tap ansio at the same framerates you're getting
now.
