Multimonitor and AGP

This is from the Matrox site. You can have one card in the AGP slot and one in a PCI slot. The cards have to have multimonitor support ( I believe) . The Millenium II cards have multimonitor support but each card takes a seperate slot

>> How many AGP devices can I have in my system?
There is only one AGP "port" on each motherboard. This means if the AGP device is integrated on the motherboard, it cannot be upgraded with another AGP graphics board. The only option for upgrading an AGP motherboard design is through a PCI board. If the AGP device is not integrated on the motherboard, but comes as an add-in card, it can be removed and upgraded with a newer AGP card.

Does AGP offer multiple monitor support?
Yes, AGP supports multiple monitors. However, since there is only one AGP device per motherboard, the additional monitors will be driven by add-in PCI cards, which might impact overall performance.<<
