HI All

Im looking for a dual monitor card for work. Im looking for the absolute best in 2d quality. I have it down to 3 cards. The ATI 9000pro, Matrox g550, 3dlabs wildcat vp 560. The 3dlabs is twice the price of the other two. If you have any other suggestion for best in 2d in dual monitor cards let me know!!

i'm not sure of the Wildcat card, but the 2d of the Maxtrox G-550 is superior to that of the Radeon 9000.

Seeing that this is a recent thread, and that it asks directly about the 3DLabs Wildcat VP 560, I'll just bump it instead of starting my own thread. :)

Anyway, I'm considering a professional dual monitor card, and the 3DLabs one, along with Matrox's card, has dual DVI (important if I upgrade to LCDs in the future). Another feature that matters to me is being able to have OpenGL accelerated on both screens - something my Radeon VE could never do. The 3DLabs card can supposedly handle this, but I was wondering about the other options as well, seeing that the 3DLabs Wildcat VP 560 is kind of hard to obtain.
