Tri monitor setup?

FX5200 = total and utter crap, get a 9800 or 9700 or 9600xt

if i rememeber correctly you need to run 2 video cards for three or more monitors, you cant use dvi, svideo and vga, at least last time i checked

there are some benchmarks with a fx5200, and i think they speak for themself

it gets raped in several tests by a radeon 9000 which is a POS

its performance is about the same as a geforce 4 mx which came out a long time ago and were not very good....


but its your money spend it how you wish
 
The only company that makes triple-head cards is Matrox, with their P750 Millennium and Parhelia cards. Cards like the one you linked to can only use two outputs at a time.
 
Indeed, the card only has 2 RAMDACs on it, so no matter how many physical outputs it has, it can only put a display on 2 different analog targets at a time.
 
just buy an agp radeon of some sort that supports dual monitors and then a pci all in wonder 7500 or something... that would be the winning combo
