I need a dual monitor set-up for video projector use. Which would be better performance overall for video and powerpoint playback ?

1) All In wonder 7500 32Mb DDR Card in AGP slot with 8mb SIS PCI card for secondary display

2) Radeon 7500 64DDR card with dual monitor support ?

I am concerned that in (1) the cheap secondary card would slow things down, but it would give me a TV decoder built in !

What OS are you planning to use?

I personally would go with the single card with dual heads. I've used the Radeon 7500 in the past and it is a decent card.

But the Radeon 8500 has been dropping in price and is a much newer chipset. And I think right now, it's the best video card for the price. It rivals the Geforce 3 Ti500, has amazing DVD quality and ATI's 2D graphics which you can never go wrong with.
