I want to buy Matrox dual head AGP adapter.
I know that G-450 is recommended and would
like to know if the new 550 is also good.
Thanx
Does Matrox G-550 is better then G-450?
I don't think the G550 is worth the extra money; but read a few reviews on the net:

ATI have wasted enough of my time (I put them in the same bin as VIA, fwiw), they do have good products, it's simply the driver support that has driven me away from touching their products again. They still do this too, even with their new 8500 card. nVidia is what I suggest, but Matrox if Dualhead is the main feature you're looking at.

Oh, I still have the ATI Rage at the moment, and I have absolutely no, not even the shadow of a problem with it, its drivers and the performance are just wonderful. But I used to have a Matrox before and had several problems with its drivers and compatibility, in fact, it´s the matrox drivers that made me mad sometimes... So, you say it´s opposite of my experience, hmm, that makes me think.
Well I have already ordered the Radeon VE, as soon as I´ll have the first probs with it, I promise, I´ll remember your words then. Let´s just wait and see what happens.
