I am about to purchase an R300 based video card but I have a few final questions concerning the ATI 9700 PRO and the 9700 AIW PRO that my numerous searches have not been able to answer.
1) Are there any known PQ differences between these two cards or are they using the exact same hardware for this functionality? I know Mike Parker and others have raved about the 9700 PRO and I just wanted to ensure that the AIW maintained the exact same high quality PQ.
2) The one recurring complaint I've heard regarding the AIW 9700 is the lack of a second monitor output (ie VGA or DVI) for multi-monitor support. Besides this issue, are there any other obvious shortcomings when comparing the AIW card to the regular 9700 PRO?
