Graphic Card Advice...

[brisa]

Hi everyone !

I just found this website and it sounds great ! So it looks like I'm in the right place. I'm looking into changing my graphic card (Matrox G450 Dualhead 32m) for a more powerful one. I read some reviews and advices on the web, but there are terms I'm not familiar with. As you will see, I know some basics, but I'm far from being a pro ! :

1) memory : at LEAST 64
2) dual monitor support
3) PCI or AGP ? (board : asus P4PE)
4) fps ? 60 ?
5) directx 9 support
6) GPU ? How, when, what... lol
7) "VCR" input (not essential)
8) Use for the card : Grand Prix 4 and writing music
9) 0$ - 150$

Thanks a lot to anyone that can help me !

I use the Matrox Parhelia 128 MB driving 2 Hercules Prophet View TFTs each at 1024 x 769 (Total desktop is 2048 x 768).

It is brilliant.
