looks like it should work, i'm really just guessing, man I need to look at Tiger more often, I dont remember seeing that card, sure looks purdy.

btw that one card is AGP and it's listed under PCI cards, jut thought i'd point that out.

NzC · 28-November-03, 03:03 PM

No, i just checked, it isnt. Look at the slot part, it doesnt have the AGP hook and it has a PCI congfiguration.

Btw, dont buy those cards from Tigerdirect. Some of their prices might seem low but they jack up the shipping. Their return policy sucks too. Not a very reputable company.

Newegg has these cards for cheaper prices and free shipping:

Chaintech FM6P/N GeForce FX 5600 Personal Cinema
CHAINTECH Geforce FX 5200 128MB DDR PCI Video Card

I wasn't planning on buying from them. I just found them there.

Those cards should work together, no reason they shouldn't. If I were you, I would just buy a DVI Y cable off of eBay and try that out before dropping alot of money on a seperate video card. Only problem is, it just might clone the output and not give you the option to do the 2 into 1 thing.

You can buy a good DVI to VGA adapter.
