saving my pennys
This is a discussion about saving my pennys in the Windows Hardware category; Ok, I can't take it any more. . . . Almost every day I find myself answering all the BS problems with with ATI Radions. . . And, then it's not much better with Nvida and Gforce which may have better 3d drivers, but, can't give you a good 2d picture.
Ok, I can't take it any more.... Almost every day I find myself answering all the BS problems with with ATI Radions... And, then it's not much better with Nvida and Gforce which may have better 3d drivers, but, can't give you a good 2d picture... ATI gives an ok 2d, but nothing to write home to mother about. On top of that, I may play a game once in a while, but, I'm not a gamer, but I do CAD and Graphics.

Do you need the 3 displays? That's the only reason for getting it.
if u so any type of 3d cad (solidworks or pro/e) then u will be very disappointed with the matrox card.

Actually most is in 2d Cadkey, or AutoCad
But, do you have a better solution?

Well, it has excelent 2d and better than average 3d... Probably the G550 would match it in 2d but not in 3d. Right now I've got the ATI 8500 whic is great in 3d but just ok at the 2d tasks. I don't see where the 3 displays are the only reasons?

that card will work very nicely for those CAD programs
You certainly wont be disapointed with a Parhelia - it really is a quality piece of kit.
2D quality is unbeatable and it performs OK in 3D too.
Let's be honest, it's got to be a better option than a GF FX with it's built in vacuum cleaner.

I think a lot of cards fit into that category ;(
