Low cost AGP Dual LCD (DVI) Video Card?
What's a fairly low cost AGP video card that can support two LCD screens?
(and quiet, of course.. but that should go without saying )
Thanks !

dual DVI is a lost cause for AGP. you can get DVI to VGA adapter cables which might work for you, but a cheap card that can do what you need, not likely. VGA (D-Sub) is what you'll be able to find cheap. I have a Matrox Millennium Dual head, and its 32mb AGP 4x card that gets the job done. Most i've ever used it for is dual 17" monitors for a couple hours.
you can get cheap dual display (some even triple display), but they might not have two DVI outputs, normally either one DVI and one S-video out, or you get lucky with a VGA, DVI and S-Video.

I've found a few cards that are dual DVI capable, AGP, and passive.
Thanks again to NeilBlanchard for his findings, and everyone for their effort.
Visiontek X1050
Nvidia Quadro 4 280 NVS
Matrox G550
None of these are going to be decent gaming cards, but which would you recommend for dual widescreen LCD monitors at 1680x1050?
Will the X1050 support 1680x1050 resolution? Visiontek's website info for the X1050 seems to imply it won't?
