What is the best dual head card for 3d gaming?

[Kraeji]

I wanna try dual monitors.. but I still like to play 3d games.. any nvidia cards out there that fill this requirement?

The ATI radeon 8500 has dropped in price tremendously. Very good dual monitor support and great with 3d games

I'd say the Radeon 8500. Though any of the Geforce 4 TIs will work as well. If you want more speed though I'd go with the Radeon 8500 128MB.

Guys, he is looking for a card that has DUAL HEAD for 3D GAMING, not just a card with dual head (2D)...

To my knowledge dual head gaming is more dependent on the game you are playing not the video card.... a special patch would have to be made available for that specific game (FS2000 is one such game) so that the video card can enable dual head. For instance, for UT2003 to be able to support Matrox's surround gaming (3x monitors) the developers had to create a patch for the Perhelia.
