I ordered a gigabyte GA-965P-S3 mobo, ram, psu, and C2D. it should be here by thu/fri and was going to use a pci video card to get it running, then i read that it will probably default to pci-e for video, is there nothing i can do but order a pci-e and wait until it gets here, i dont want to pay the price from a store.

Also, how can i tell if a video card can support dual monitors? do all video cards with 2 outputs handle dual monitors?

I would like to get a card that can handle dual monitors 17" with vista, not for gaming, but video (dvd).

For Nvidia/ATI PCI-E, yes.
