Hi i will be doing a lot of DTP (Quark, AdobeCS2 apps) and Video Editing (Premiere hopefully) using a MPro but have no idea which grafx card really suits my needs and which MPro. Of course i will want to play a few games as well here and then.
All these options seem great but which one and why?
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB (single-link DVI/dual-link DVI)
ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB (2 x dual-link DVI)
NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 512MB, Stereo 3D (2 x dual-link DVI)

and what is that 2 x dual-link DVI option, whats it for?
 
well, i don't think that any of the apps you listed will take full advantage of the quadro card, so it would be a waste of money. its mainly a high end cad workstation card. the ati is the one that is best for playing games on, even better for games than the quadro. so that is the one i'd get. as for the dual-link thing, that is what is required to drive large highend lcd displayies, like apple's 30in. so to have 2x dual-links, you could connect 2 of apple's 30inchers!
