I'd like some information about the following ATI cards:

ATI Vantage
ATI Ultra
ATI Ultra Plus
ATI Ultra Pro

Basically, all I want are the specs of these cards (modes supported, number
of colors, speed, compatibility issues, the difference between the 1 Meg and 2
Megs version of the cards, etc.).

I have already called 5 or 6 retailers in my region, but no one can give me
adequate information about the cards.  They sell it.  That's it.

Also, I want to buy a monitor to go with the card.  Up to now, I have
gathered the following specs, which are supposed to be caracteristic of
a good quality monitor:

1024 x 768 resolution, non-interlaced in all modes
Multisynch
0.28 mm dot pitch
15 "
70 Hz vertical refresh rate min. in all hi-res modes
Low radiation: MPR I or MPR II

Anyone can suggest a monitor that meets these specs?  I'm open to other
suggestions too (monitors with other specs).  Simply state the difference
in specs.

I would prefer E-Mail replies.  Be sure to use the address mentioned in my
signature below.

If I get sufficient information, I will post a summary on this newsgroup.

Thanks in advance for your help.
