On my 2nd gen 8-core Catalyst, I have an 8800.
I have another 1st gen with a Quatro FX 5500.
I haven't tried the 5600 yet but the cost is the prohibitive factor.
The machine with the 5500 is driving two 30" cinema displays at 2560x1600 which I use for content creation.
Trust me, the big displays and for creating content are the only reason I have a 5500. It will however drive two Matrox TH2G at 3840x768 each.
The 8800 will also drive TH2G at 3840x768 also. The x1900 will only drive one at that rate. This is unless i drop down to 2400x600 on each TH2G for the x1900.
Incidentally this is on both 1st and 2nd gen machines.
I know Richard you say the x1900 but I am finding the 8800 now is my preference on 2nd Gen.
Whatever you do, don't touch the HD 2600.
