The NVIDIA Quadro Plex is an external graphics processing unit (VCS) designed for large-scale 3D visualizations. The system consists of a box containing a pair of high-end NVIDIA graphics cards featuring a variety of external video connectors. A special PCI Express card is installed in the host computer, and the two are connected by VHDCI cables.The NVIDIA Quadro Plex system supports up to four GPUs per unit. It connects to the host PC via a small form factor PCI Express card connected to the host, and a 2 meter (6.5 foot) NVIDIA Quadro Plex Interconnect Cable. The system is housed in an external case that is approximately 9.49 inches in height, 5.94 inches in width, and 20.55 inches in depth and weighs about 19 pounds. The system relies heavily on NVIDIA's SLI technology.The Plex is aimed at large CGI animation companies, such as Pixar and DreamWorks Animation. This product is one of several professional graphics solutions on the market today, along with ATI's FireGL and Matrox's professional graphics cards.

Any modern mid-range graphics card will do. All the technology in high end consumer based cards is for rendering 3D graphics at high frame rates. (for the purpose of gaming) You could buy a top of the line Nvidia 8800GTX (G80 series) for $650 and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference designing 2D graphics than you would on a mid-range $150 card.
If you're going to be using Windows Vista with the Aero interface enabled, then you might want to step it up a little more. In that case a G70 series would do.
If you're talking about CAD designing, then that's a different story. For those purposes you'd have to look at workstation oriented cards, such as those made by Matrox, etc.

Just for resolution you don't need expensive card. Expensive is different only by ammount of jeeze up its DSP. You, on the other hand, don't need 3d performance, so I'd recommend getting NVidia card (best drivers for all OSes). The memory on the card is not important either as you are going to use a small part of it anyway. suppose you want to use 4000x4000 (non existant but anyway) it gives 16m*3bytes per pixel = 48mb per single screen. Almost all OSes will require double buffer so you will need 96Mb. Its hard to find a card with less than 256Mb today.
I'd say 7300GS 256MB below 90$ a pop.
And damn, use a good mouse like Logitech G5.

ATI or Matrox. Don't waste your time with GeForce unless you game. The high end Matrox cards are sweet but so are the ATI cards as well.
