Excellent thank you. And yep, you got it, that's the one. I replaced my 32" LCD with it. It's got 3 HDMI slots and DVI which covers my computer and my consoles as well as my cable box, so I have no real reason to pick 5" of LCD width over 1080p and a much picture all-around. I sit less than 4 feet from it anyway so the size is fine for me. 

PS: They sent me the overclocked 580 too. Not sure how big a difference it really is, especially when I'm pretty sure it came with an overclock utility to overclock it yourself if you want. I really should overclock my CPU, as it's obviously holding me back more than the GPU at this point.

You're probably right. Overclocking the 580 won't make much difference in your case. I suggest getting 3D Mark Vantage benchmark and running it on performance. The score you get for GPU should be 25000 plus on a stock 580. If its less, your CPU/memory is holding you back.

Overclocking the CPU and memory could give you a nice boost as well.

Otherwise, if you can get your hands on a Nvidia compatible 3D projector...you won't regret it. They are the best 3D you can experience at home at the moment.  I have the Acer h5360 and it blows away my viewsonic 3D monitor out of the water. They are like 500 bucks these days which is a complete steal...

Maybe later in the year/early next year. I have other priority purchases this year (A PS Vita, an Asus Eee Pad Transformer).
