We need to add a PCI-Video-card for the 3rd monitor in same Pulsar/Scope system. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated.
Here is my setup:
2GhzP4-ASUS-2GB400MhzFSB
Scope x2
G550-DualHd-32MB-Video (AGP)
UATA100-HD x2
Wins98SE/NT/XP/2000
GigaStudio
Sonar
Best regards,
Long

Try Matrox G200 QuadHead AGP
We don't know why Matrox doesn't make AGP, the G200 is only available on PCI, unfortunately. I'm also looking for the "Quadhead AGP" solution. I'm worry about PCI, which might be conflicted with the Scope board performance.
Thanks,
Anyone?
A second Matrox G450/G550 PCI might work, but I understand your desire to leave your PCI bus free for your Creamware cards -- and Matrox cards on PCI bus tend to be a bit of a hog.
Check out this one:
Predator Pro 4 AGP

lol
the two matrox cards i have are AGP4. I think most of their cards will be AGP4.

I'm about interested the "Predator Pro 4 AGP" (Thanks for subhuman's solution). Just a question that Anyone has any experiences in using this with pulsar/scope system or I must be the first one, who try to evaluate it? Any other options, I mean how you get 3/4 heads video-display solution. We hardly can afford if there is any wrongs.

Almost positive nobody with Creamware has tried that card... they would probably rather buy a SCOPE expansion than spend over $1k on a graphics adapter, but...
You might consider the G550 PCI dualhead first, since it would be easy to resell, if you find that it takes too much PCI (remember to ask for the proper tweaks).

Just found out that 4 port AGP card (128 megs of ram on a video card!? YES!) is <a href=http://www.colorgraphic.net/products/na ... 12>$795</a> (click on Pro 4 AGP at the top of the page)
Not as bad as I had thought, considering the Matrox G200 Quadhead PCI goes for something like $1200+
