Default 1230 vs 1260 vs PPC 040/060

Currently I have a 1230 IV which I use for WHDLOAD works great!

Im tempted in upgrading to a faster card but I would probably sell my 1230 if I do.

Is it worth upgrading to a Bliz1260 or a PPC 040 which I could upgrade myself to 060 later down the track... Im very comfortable with electronics so upgrading no problem.. Just weary of price paid vs real benefit..

I love Unix that probably where the PPC can come into things but not really sure what PPC software is out there and enjoy classic 3.x environments not sure if I would enjoy OS 4.0 for instance..

Noticed some ppl say a pure 1260 is faster than a PPC 060 when solely using the 060 onboard.. also noticed 1230 is more compable than a 1260 which runs at x8 or x10 its speed ?

Would appreciate help deciding..
