Default Choosing Video card

I am shopping for a video card that can play good video games, watch TV
(either hook up with a TV or watch it on the monitor) and have the option of
running 2 monitor at the same time.... and not have to spend too much money
on it...

Any suggestions?
Is this too much to ask for?

Thanks a million for all your help in advance

I think you would be better off with an ATI or Nvidia card.

Don't get me wrong, I think Matrox cards are excellent for 2D (I use a G550
and P650 myself), but they are not so hot at games.
