Greg J, depends on your objective. You need to think of a graphics card and the monitor as a "graphics subsystem" Meaning, if you buy a 15 in, edge to edge monitor that can do at least .28 dpi, and you want to make the best acheivable use of the available "real estate", you need at most a graphics card that has at most 2 mb dram ( my home PC), unless you are really doing some graphicaly intense stuff, such as CAD. You can run 800 x 600 res with this combo without a lot of flicker. But if you want to do 1024 x 768, you better think of a 17 in monitor, and either a very good 2b card, or a mere mortal 4mb card. Either way, mako sure the COMBINATION can handle the resolution & meet MPR II standards (ergonomics). I run a 20 in monitor at work hi res, so I pair it with a 4 mb Matrox Milenia card. Hope this helps, Scott
