The 9600 is a good bet over the stock NV 5200 on that configuration. And if he needs more than 2 displays, he can easily add 1, 2 or 3 RADEON 9200 PCI cards. Each of those also supports two displays (DVI-I and VGA or TV).

Unlike some "cheaper" PC 9200 cards, the Mac version has three outputs, including one digital and 128MB of memory. The board is also using more expensive components than the "ColorPower" half-height models that may be going around. I would have been more pleased if the card had come out at $99, but $130 isn't terrible considering the extra costs of developing (and testing) on a Mac. The beta testers loved that card by the way.
