Help me choose a graphics card.. - GoFuckYourself.com

Well, I've narrowed down my selection to these two:
-32MB AGP "ATI" Radeon TV Out SDRAM
-32MB AGP "ATI" Radeon VE Dual Display Edition, TV Out Hardware DVD, DDR
They cost almost the same, I just need some advice on which one is better for 2d, which one for 3d gaming? 2d picture display is primary, so I guess it's the sdr one, but I'm not sure..
Also, that VE version, what outputs does it have? monitor and tv out or two monitor outputs?

Why not get a 64 meg card?

What are you wanting the card for ? Gaming or work ?? If you're looking for a gaming card, get either a Geforce 3 Ti 200 or Ti 500 card. I just got the Ti 500 card and it smokes !!

Cause I live in Yugoslavia and the only ATI graphics card with 64mb available is that "all-in-wonder", which is three times more expensive, and I've already got a TV tuner.. Slick has a point there, I need the card for work, 2d is more important, so, does anybody have some experience with Matrox g550?
