Hmm - I'm even more puzzled now.
There are two 5200s and four 6200s from which to chose.
Output sockets aren't mentioned in Wiki?
I think I need a card with dual output DVi (because 1 output cannot do
more than 1900x1200 graphics and I already use 2048x1536). [I know - I
can't use dual output DVi until Castle have written something to
enable this, I beleive].
HDMI output would also be useful, but not essential.
But because the DVi drivers aren't ready yet, I really also need
15-pin VGA sovket output as well.
So, I think I want the 6200TC??
Or, which one do I want for the above, bearing in mind I need a 350MHz
pixel rate, dual output DVi and 15-pin VGA?
