| 78129 | 2002-09-09 10:28:00 | Yes I am greedy! I was thinking of buying a new video card. One part of me wants to buy a card with paint shop pro in mind that would support dual vga display. The other part of me want's to play quake 3. I'd want to spend about $300 like I said I'm greedy Currently have a Nividia tnt2 32mb card |

A cheaper option would be go for the best card you can afford, and then get a second cheaper PCI card to run your second display, as you won't need the second display to run Q3, just your primary one, so it needn't be as powerful.
