I personnally swear by the Matrox line of cards, the Millenium or the
Mystique, doesn't really matter, both are excellent cards.

I think you should stick with the two card approach, get a good 2d card,
and supplement it with an excellent 3d card, your choice of the monster3d
is a good one. As for combo cards, there are very few 2d/3d cards that come
close to competing with the voodoo2 chipset, and I don't think the V330 is
on of them. I recommmend you go to www.tomshardware.com and
www.anandtech.com for more information, they are both excellent sites with
lots of info. TTYL
