Hi guys,

I hope someone can give me some advice here...

My gfx card just popped so i need a cheap replacement.

Im looking to upgrade my whole pc in the near future, but for the time
being im just looking for a cheap fix.

It needs to be agp (8x i think), i need to to support dual output
(independant, not just cloning) One for my analogue monitor and one
for my TV (its got analogue PC in + HDMI)

Can someone suggest a cheap (but decent) card that will fit my needs?

Thanks alot,

Andrew

Hi,

What do you think of the following:
MSI FX5200-TD128LF FX 5200 128 MB DDR DVI - TV out AGP

These FX series cards that say they support dual monitors, do they
work the same way as having two video cards, or does it just create a
single widescreen desktop? I really need the former, where you can
'maximise' windows on to each screen independantly, but so u can also
restore and drag them between screens.

Thanks for the help

Andrew

Depends what you define as "cheap"?

All AGP cards are relatively cheap compared to the new generation of PCIe
DirectX 10 cards.

I'd say something like a Nvidia 7600GS (or GT) may be what you are
looking for, as its got ok performance and is cheap.
