A Matrox Millennium G450 with single DVI output. These cards came in different shapes and forms: I have both PCI and AGP versions. Some with two D-SUB (VGA) outputs, some with both D-SUB and DVI and with variations in memory type (SD vs SG RAM).

Matrox used adhesive thermal interface material to mount the heatsinks on their chips.
