    Help me pick a PCI graphics card to go with 6800GT

    Hi,

    I need to find a PCI graphics card to go with my 6800GT AGP. The reason is I have 2 19" CRT and 1 24" TV and I can only connect of maximum 2 devices on the 6800 card. Therefore I need to have another PCI card to be able to connect to the other monitor. I have tried ATI Rage 2 PCI and S3 Virge/DX and Cirrus Logic but having a trouble that Win XP detects them fine but unable to start the card!!! I have tried option of having PCI card initiates first in BIOS but results in MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION BSOD!!! The only card I have not tried is the nVidia PCI but I do not have any.

    If anybody can give me an advice, I would be very greatful. Thank you very much in advance.

    Stick with the same manufacturer, so I'd say an FX5200
