Pros: Easy setup, but be sure to install the latest drivers off the Matrox site. Excellent tech bulletin board on the Matrox site.
Cons: Triple head requires stretching the single desktop across all three monitors, allowing only one .icc profile (disallowing individual monitor profiles). Not good. Cost is higher than other dual independent cards, but so is the technology level in a Matrox card.
Overall Review: For true triple head (with independent control of each monitor) get a PCI 650 as well, and set all three to 1600x1200 at 32 bit. Fantastic! Be sure to use the unified driver.
