I'm looking to build a new machine from parts, and I want to have a reasonably modern graphics card in it that supports dual-headed output (preferably DVI, but doesn't really matter). I want to run freebsd-amd64 on the machine, so nvidia's binary blob is out. The motherboard will probably only have PCI-E slots (so no AGP cards). What cards are people getting good results from, these days? Thanks, Ben Kaduk
