Ok.
I have my standard desk computer which i do all my work on, watch movies, email, surf etc
A few months ago i decided to buy a second monitor as my work tends to require me to have multiple things viewable at the same time, so i went out and bought myself one of these:

Its a nice screen, its nice having two of them - makes me a little more productive
My computer currently has an old X1950pro graphics card with two DVI outputs, both of which i have used to connect my displays.
The motherboard i have is one of the old DFI Lanparty NF4 models:

I've recently happened to acuire a nice new 42" LG LCD Tv, and would very much like to encorporate this into my current setup.
The idea would be to have them in this sort of order:
[26"] [42"] [26"]
The problem however is that There is only two outputs on the Graphics card and my Mobo doesnt have an onboard graphics output.
When I first thought of this, i borrowed a friends X1950 card, he advised me that it would work just the same, the mobo having two PCI-E slots woudl enable me to just stick it in below it.
So I could have up to 4 monitors if I wished, however I never got round to trying it for some other smaller reasons (lack of power cables on the psu etc) and mostly for the reason that my current X1950 has such a fat heatsink, that the other card may not actually fit in anyway!
What im wondering then is, are there any smaller PCI graphics cards you coudl recommend that i could maybe put in at the bottom of my case to help me out? or some alternative olution to this problem?
Thanks
Richard
