Hey!

I'm about to invest a lot of money in a VJ Computer. I went to a couple of computershops and had a look at cards with GeForce 4 and ATI 8500 chipsets... I recently discovered that Matrox is about to release the brand new Parhelia card!! After reading some reviews it seems like the ultimate VJ card (up to 3 independent monitors!!). I will also be using the PC as a graphics / 3D / Video editing workstation, so I think the investment of almost 500 euro's will be good value for money... Does anyone share this opinion? More info and some reviews can be found here:

so far you do not have any use for a videocard that has tripple output since there is no vj software available that supports it. But we,d like to be the first to support two video outputs ;-)

i think the Parhelia is a good investment but note that you will have to wait untill there is vj software available that can actually use all three screens.
