PCI graphics Card for 2nd Monitor

HI Guys,

I want to get a second graphics card so that I can run a second monitor. My PC currently has a Nvidia GeForce 4 MX420, would it be best for me to get a similar card from Nvidia to keep some visual unity between monitors??

I don't particularly want to spend a fortune so any suggestions

Cheers

Why is it better?? Any examples.

Should have said that this isn't my workstation (I use a Mac) its my "office PC" that i use to administer hosting - pick up various e-mail - test sites - and listen to iTunes on.

I am happy with the graphics output at the moment - just wanted a reasonable PCI card so i can view outlook on one monitor and browser IE on the other. Nothing special - no gaming, (GameCube for that)..
