Help! can dual-DVI card drive DVI and analog monitors?

[Skypix7]

I'm using a 2 19" CRT setup now for photoshop imaging, I'm an aviation photographer and shoot all digital now.

I'm figuring the Matrox G550 dual DVI will work for me, I've had great success with the dual G400 Max on my P4 rig.

Don't need gaming performance, just want to get a good 19" LCD and use my best 19" analog for the second monitor. Do you know if the card will power one of each or do I have to make the switch to all DVI?

thanks!:camera:

FYI G550 DVI max resolution is 1280x1024, but IIRC they are DVI-I connectors, so the should run in analog mode just fine with the adaptors.

thanks rbV5, not sure I understand your reply...Matrox dual cards set up each monitor individually, at least my g400 does, and the 550 has both analog and DVI outputs, but what I was wondering is, can I have one of each, analog and digital, hooked up?

I guess I'll ask Matrox, but anyone know of another card that will do this trick...until I can pop for another 19" LCD? :Q

Oh okay, great, so sounds like it'll work fine. Thanks rbV5!

Also would still like to know if anyone recommends any other card over the 550 for photoshop work.
