Is G450 MMS Quad OK for Resolume 3 with a Core 2 Duo motherboard running XP?

Matrox allways creates very good graphic cards but they are primarily aimed at image quality and not speed.
A lot of hardware specific functianlity which we use in Resolume 3 is probably not supported by this card.
I'm not completely sure because i can' test it myslef but it seems to perform poorly in benchmarks.
It would be a perfect card for multi-screen installations though.

To be honest the real question would be if we can use 3 outputs from the resolume software or only 2. I guess the video card should be ATI or NVIDIA...

I have one of these cards and when i get a moment [and some spare monitors] I will test resolume avenue with this card - if it copes just as a video output machine as Edwin states - yes it will be perfect for multi screen visual setups - but I fear it does not have the RAM required to really cope with Res Avenue.

I just tossed in a G450 MMS Quad into a desktop and installed ResAve3.1.

on start up I got the "Video Engine Couldn't start" error, so I doubt that that it can handle ResAve
