Creamware/Sonic Core together with graphics card

Hi again,

When it comes to running a Creamware Pulsar 2 card/some kind of Sonic Core card together with a graphics cards, are there any particular Don't I should think of? Are there any manufacturers or cards in particular one should stay clear of when running a Creamware/Sonic Core card? I'm considering getting myself a Matrox QID or an ATI FireMV-2400 since I will use 3-4 monitors for my DAW setup (Scope, mixer, sequencer, VSTs... lots of stuff needs room ;) and there's not that many triple/quad head cards out there.

Is there any kind of graphics card that are more suitable or less suitable than the rest? For example:
- If I were to use a Pulsar 2 PCI card, would it be better to go for a PCI, AGP or PCIe graphics card?
- If I were to use a Sonic Core PCIe card, would it be better to go for a PCI, AGP or PCIe graphics card?

Thanks again,
Tomas

agp OR PCIe cards are preferred.

i'd go with matrox over ati. if you need more screens, a normal 2 head for under $100 and a product like the triplehead-to-go might be a better buy. i have very good luck with nvidia cards.
