Also my monitor is 1680X1050 however it's a 3D monitor and 3D gaming takes a lot more horsepower.

Could you link to some comparative benchmarks, please? I find it hard to believe that a 1680x1050 display requires that much horsepower, given that a single Radeon 4850 (3D aside) will run most games at max settings at that resolution.

A 3d game requires anything from 23 - 40 percent more GPU power due to the fact that you have to render everything Twice at decent frame rates.

Look at this. There are more games he shows but with a GTX 280 his FPS takes a hit from 43.2 FPS to 19 FPS in farcry 2. It's hard finding benchmarks for 3d Vision as most benchmarks are videos now to show.
