Matrox Parhelia Graphics Card

Strengths: Simple installation, setup. Amazing color depth. This card can handle huge Photoshop files with ease. Online support if needed.

I have no previous experience beyond a very old Gateway, so I have to temper my comments, but from what I have read, this is an amazing card. The alleged shortfalls in 3D gaming are not evident, unless you are into shear numbers. DVD movies are sooo crisp & vivid.

Matrox Parhelia Graphics Card

Strengths: Matrox Parhelia 128MB * TripleHead Desktop / Surround Gaming * Video

Weakness: none

I am very pleased with this video card. With the the sorround hardware you can feel the diffrence when playing todays games. Also this card is very unique you can hook up, 3 monitors. Imagine plaing games with 3 monitors at once, it would be like been inside the theter. Also I noticed a big diffrence with 2D quality in application, comparing to Geforce3. Thanx to 10Bit Giga color. and 512-bit...
