An upgrade to a ZIF with 1MB cache would give you a good speed boost no matter what speed it is (g3-350/400 would be easy to find and dirt cheap). The built in video upgraded to 6MB is fine for just about anything you would want to do with a beige G3. If you want a faster video card a Rage 128 PCI would be ok, and cheap.

By the time you start getting fast video cards, PCI ATA cards, a fast CPU, and more RAM you might as well move up to a B&W which is about free these days or spend a couple dollars for a G4 AGP.

My Beige G3s use the built in video and seem speedy to me. I have 128MB RAM in the desktop (g3-333/1MB) and 512MB in the tower (G3-433/1MB).
