NO! They are taking advantage of you!
You do NOT need a high-powered card to run a second screen for Logic.
Logic does not require 80-frame-per-second 3d animation! A simple
vid board is all you need.
I don't know what the mail-order business is for you in Europe, but
you CAN get it cheaper!
Thsi card (from MacWarehouse http://www.macwarehouse.com)
ATI TECHNOLOGIES ATI Xclaim 3D Plus Video board f/Mac. 8MB Mem
PCI $89.00
at US$89 would be PERFECT for a studio setup, in fact that is my 2nd
monitor card.
Don't let them sell you too much capability!
