The only AIW cards with dual monitor support available at this time is the AIW 9600 line. The AIW x800 has it, but is still not available.

do they make a 9800 card with dual DVI?

I notice that the regular 9800 pro has dvi and vga ports, so Iam gussing I can put my dual monitors into that

I really need some help fast, Iam looking for a video card that is good and is around the price of $250 dollars, no higher. I must be able to plug two monitors into it for dual monitors, I kinda would like it to be 256 MB but I dunno, the only reason I would want 256 MB is for gaming but if more memory wont help gaming then I want 128 MB. My dad is looking at a X700 but I dont know if thats good enough card, and the card has to be agp. Iam looking at this card, all the other 9800 pros are out of stock
Iam also looking at the GeForce 6600 and the 6800 LT

Bud, do a little of your own research for once - almost all cards made by nV and ATi in the last two years have been multi-monitor capable. There are 400000 web sites out there that all have the info you need, don't ask us to do what you could do with google, 2 minutes and a smidgin of you OWN brain.

"for once"?....thats always nice to hear

well, tis true. as for the 9800 having one dsub and one DVI, i would prefer it to have 2 DVI, but if you have analog monitors DVI supplies all the standard pinouts for DSUB connections, making it trivial to reroute the pins in an adapter.

Is the Geforce 6600 GT good? Me and my dad have been doing research for hours, still havent made a choice, all the stores are pritty much sold out of a 9800 pro, so that only leaves us to geforces line, anyone know what to get from them?

if you've been doing research "for hours", you should have come across one of the countless reviews online that compare the 6600GT to the 9800pro and x700 cards. and you would know the answer to that question.

Christ, an FX 5200 has dual monitor support. Just get the conversion piece that goes from DVI -> Analogue or get the piece that goes the other way around depending on what you need.

I think I've come to a conclusion, the GeForce 6600 GT beats the 9800 Pro in almost all the benchmarking tests, if you want an idea on how badly the 6600 GT beats the 9800 Pro, look here
