its true the parhelia is not a gamer's card. but it is very much a quality piece of manufacturing.
Shop your needs. He didn't say he wanted a gaming card with dual monitors, he wanted a dual monitor car with SOME gaming functionality.
If your primary goal is dual monitors, you can't beat matrox. but if you want any gaming strength you do have to to goto the Parhelia, which is not cheap, and not the strongest for gaming . . .yet. . .
I dont know of any other graphics engine that offeres on the fly 10bit colour gamma correction for each individual display.
