I started out looking for a Matrox G450, but they seem to either be out of stock, or else only available from places with horrible ratings. Does anyone know where I can get a PCI card that supports dual VGA monitors - fast?

(edited to say I needed to drive two VGA monitors)

Are you looking for dual-VGA, dual-DVI, or a combination of the two?

Dual VGA is what I need. I have an older 98SE PC that I have to set up with dual monitors, and PCI is my only option.

Well, two offerings come to mind. First, Jaton makes a dual-vga MX440 PCI, like this one here at Newegg:

or, PNY's FX 5200 PCI is also dual-VGA, plus has TV/out, shown here at Newegg

Unfortunately, Newegg is out of the Jaton card, but they do have the 5200 PCI in stock, plus their price is about as low as you will find it for from a retailer. I'm not sure where else you can find the Jaton card at the moment. Hope that helps.

EDIT: Looks like Compsource has the Jaton 440 PCI dual-vga card in stock. Check out their customer rating at Resellerratings.com. Looks like a decent company to do business with.
