Sounds like any card on the market will pretty much handle your needs. Dual-DVI cards are essentially dominant in todays market.

Something along the lines of a HD 2600 would probably be my choice. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
