I'm shopping for an ATI AGP video card. Should I basically just look
for things like pixel pipelines, core clock, memory clock, and
memory interface?

I want it for gaming and dual monitors.

By the way, do dual monitors benefit by a faster card and more
memory, say greater than 128 MB? I've heard that higher end cards
look about the same in lower resolutions. Does that mean a higher
end card would shine in dual monitor applications like Flight
Simulator 2004 when the total number of pixels is about double?

Thank you.

At least one of the reviewers say it's not actually 12 pixel
pipelines.

After further reading.

Apparently the pipelines issue is either an NVIDIA/ATI fanboy
dispute or it's the result of people misinterpreting their
overclocking utility's readout.

After lots of reading especially of user reviews, I'm very
impressed. But apparently it's not for users who have trouble
installing software and drivers. And it requires significant power.
