Forums -> Multiple monitors -> I have 4 monitors, 1 PCI slot, 1 AGP slot, Windows XP - what to do?

My current dual-head graphics card has just overheated, and now I want to use 4 monitors. I have a free PCI slot and a free AGP slot. It is for general 2D and 3D use. I want it to be high performance, but don't wanna be spending $$$'s. I've considered going for a single quad-head AGP card such as the Matrox QID or Matrox G450x4 MMS, but these seem very overly-priced compared to two dual-head graphics cards (1x PCI and 1x AGP).

Any advice on what to go for would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Would help to know how much you can spend for this. But, for a PCI card, you might grab this one while the rebate offer is available: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814145087

For an AGP card, you might go with this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131014

I have a Radeon 9250(AGP) and Radeon 7000(PCI) and both work fine and supporting 4 Lcd's w/ different resolutions.
