3 Output Graphic Card for G5?

I got a PM from a sysopt.com member that had the following question; does anybody know of a card that will work?

Hey, SM8000 reccomended that i come to you for some mac help so any aid you can give is apprieciated.

My post was,

---------------------------
I'm just wondering if anyone is familiar with running an Apple G5 with multiple graphics outputs. I heard that compatibility depends on the build of OSX and that ATI and nVIDIA are the two that comply the best. Even so, ATI and nVIDIA do not offer very good selections when it comes to multiple output graphics cards. Can anyone help out? anyone have any info on this?
---------------------------

I have found out that nVIDIA now offers the Quadro line. This line
includes two 2x monitor output cards and one 4x monitor output card. I'm told that both work with 10.2 or higher.

Then there is the ATI RADEON 9800 PRO AGP 4x Mac Edition which also has the ability for 2x monitor output and runs with 10.2.5 or later.

Now my problem is finding a card for an Apple computer that has 3 outputs. For PC there is the Matrox card but is there any for mac that you know of?

Any help, again, is greatly apprieciated.

I'm interested in finding out if there is a card with more than two output.

I tried looking on the nVIDIA site but couldn't find the 4x you mentioned in your post.

Could you tell me where I could find that?

Thanks
Dean
