card with dvi out?

My limit is $50-60.

64mb or 128 and would it really matter anyway? hell newegg has some 256mb cards in my price range too.

going to use ultramon.

thanks!

for plain old desktop stuff? the cheapest thing with 2 dvi heads. I'd suggest nvidia only if you're using *nix

chances are though you'll have to get a vga/dvi card (most come with a vga->dvi adapter)

i'd recommend evga/gigabyte/xfx/bfg and def. go w/ nvidia, aim for a minimum of 7 series

a card to run alongside an AGP card, means you are looking for PCI, which means all new cards you'd be looking at are 2 generations old and expensive (6 series @ $50)

best bet is to buy a PCI (not PCI express) card on ebay
