Without the CV3D scandoubler there's no redirection possible with the CV3D. And with a scandoubler already in place on the A3000 it would be silly to get another one and bypass the builtin for this reason. Also the CV3D scandoubler would have to be moddifyed to fit the shorter graphicslot on the A3000. So for the saving of a monitor switch this is not the option. Going for the CV64 card you would save the need for a monitorswitch but I can't say if 3D software support it since it lack 3D hardware. Can't speak for the PIV at all.

IMHO there's nothing that comes close to the CV64, CV3D, PIV (hearsay) for zorro... these are in a league of their own. I sold my old piccolo 2M card, and tested a Merlin4Mb card.. both was painfully slow, DO NOT GET THEM! I say don't even concider a card with less than 4Mb.
