Multiple Monitor Support AGP and PCI

I have a Matrox dual monitor card that is AGP....I was
wondering, can I plug a PCI video card in and make my
desktop 3 monitors wide? OR, do all 3 monitors have to be
PCI cards, or do I just need a triple head AGP or PCI card
to begin with....I now XP Pro supports multiple monitors,
just trying to figure out if they can be mixed AGP and PCI?

thanks
brad

You'll need to check with the graphic card manufacturer's to ensure each
card is compatible with the other. Some don't play nice together.
