Two weeks ago, I have to buy a new video card.

This is an Asus V9520/TD

Geforce FX 5200 with tv-out and DVI

128 meg DDR

I really like it ;)

Just tried to plug two monitors and the card is working perfectly ;)

Good bundles too for less than $130 CDN

This is the first card I hvae where you can plug two monitors and this is really easy to configure with the Nvidia drivers "Nview"

This card is longer than my previous video card and you have to clean your case before installing it :D

Attach your cables

My son has the 5200 and hasn't had any problems. My computer has the Geforce 5700, I really like it.

Maybe you can find a GF4 TI4200,it would be the same price range as a FX5200 now.
It beats the sh*t out of a FX5200 or an Ati 9200SE.....only minus:no directx9 support,but even by lack of this feature,the benchmarks are much higher.. :)

I Just picked up an MSI 5200 @da local STAPLES for $89 bucks (was $99 had a $10 brick and mortar coupon) So far it has been a great card for the value.
