might come in handy if i had an internal lcd showing things...but still i dont see a practical use for it...unless maby it coems with a dongle that connects to another pci bay...

Yeah unless XGI has some breakthrough technology why even bother unles you can get decent low level performace for 45$ or so:)....but damn with ATI and Nvidia racing each other......BTW ATI is winning in my eyes....yes SLI is nice but super exspensive and not that muchgain over a single ati card.

SLi setup = expensive for a normal budget, although i did get a SLi board thats cause it was for some reason cheaper then the Single Peg board :|

On this case to be honest i think the plug is probly to link the card to a interal box or cooling unit? or maybe it is a second dvi, but why inside, because it can't fit outside... with a second pci plate and a connector it would give u 4 views if u wanted, or maybe just 3. i know a new ATi card is coming out with 3 views it might work the same... a internal DVI and a link to the Back with a extention thingy.

Thats my Two Cents

, so go for ya greatest card the ATi series!

Well, maybe not $45, but the price is one thing XGI has going for them... that and the onboard MPEG decoder and HDTV output (1080i and 720p). These prices may not be the best, but it shows the range of cards we reviewed this winter...
