I never said your MSI wouldn't look fine. I happen to think that the 
Matrox cards give a better output. You need a good monitor to see the 
difference though. Which brings me to the next point: what monitor are 
you using? One that, given the dotpitch and size of the tube, can 
actually display 2560 pixels in width? At what refresh would that be, 
deinterlaced?

FWIW, I've just upgraded from a Matrox too. The 2D picture is acceptable 
on the nVidia chipset, but the Matrox cards picture was better, and I 
had more software options to adjust the screen - I haven't seen nVidia 
provide that.
