Graphic card recommendation needed for use with Eagle

Question

My old Shuttle is about to give up the ghost, so I'm looking to buy a new PC, however I'd like to hear some suggestions as to the type/make/speed etc of graphics card I should favour. Can anyone help?

I think any halfway decent card would work. I run an AMD 'Caicos' 6450 card

(Sapphire FleX 100322) in my Gentoo Linux-based Shuttle, using the open-

source drivers. It's fanless and quiet, and supports three 1920x1200

monitors. Drop-dead simple setup with KDE. It's nice to have two full

monitors for Eagle so you can see both the schematic and board at the same

time full-screen. I use the third for viewing datasheets.
