Default Quick & Easy video card qn for you pros

I have a new Dell Inspiron 530 w two monitors (1900x1200 & 1600 x 1200) hooked up. I need to order a video card to get a 3rd display (2001FP) running as well. However, I may splurge in the future for a bigger screen, ie 2560x1600.

I see the FAQ has this:

"So which graphics cards can I use?"

There are more and more compatible cards being released every day. As mentioned before, the best way to find one is to go into your local retailer or search online merchants and specify "dual link DVI". Here are some compatible models though:

* Nvidia Quadro FX 3000, 4000, 3400, 4400
* Sapphire X1300 XT, X 1650 Pro and X 1650 XT
* ATI FireGL V3400, V5200, V3300, Radeon 9600 Pro
* GeForce 7800GT, 7950GT, 8500GT, 8800GTX, 8800 GTS

Anyone know what is out there now and what would currently be my best bet? Is there any diference between brands in terms of quality/reliability etc; or is it six and half a dozen?

Thanks for any pointers.
