MSI NX7600GS-T2D256E Geforce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card. Worked great. I'm using it to run a dual head monitor system.

Need to install nVidia drivers. Followed fedorafaq.org instructions: http://www.fedorafaq.org/#nvidia\ worked just fine.

The gnome display utility didn't get the dual head system to work correctly I had to make the changes myself to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Here is my file.
