What card for 1600x1200 dual?

Mister Max

I want to upgrade my graphics card from a Matrox G550, which doesn't

support the full native resolution of my new LCD monitor, and won't let
me adjust colors separately on two monitors. I don't use games or TV, so
I don't need 3D.

My system:
Monitors: Samsung 213T DVI LCD + Sony CRT
Motherboard: AGP slot. Intel D845HV. Bus Clock 100 MHz.
Processor: 180 GHz Pentium 4. 8 KB primary, 256 KB secondary cache
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
Primary use: Photoshop CS2 (My upgrade is on order.)

Objectives:
1. To use the native 1600x1200 resolution of the LCD.
2. To calibrate the two monitors separately: Adobe Gamma, color, etc.


What graphic card should I buy?

Any modern video card should be able to do 2048x1536 dual monitor. There are
a few ultra cheap cards that can only handle one monitor but rare nowadays.
