    Iv 1600x1200 uxga screen, i love it! Iv read quite a few reviews on 280s and from what I gather you could turn everything on high and get 30-40 fps...I read this review just yesterday in fact where crysis was tested with desktops and it was an extensive sli crossfire testing between one gpu of each all the way up to 4 9800 nvidea gts cards in quad sli. I think the highest was a pair of 8800 gtx's with extended memory or something but i think they averaged around 70 fps at 1600x1200 with everything turned up. Comparing that with laptop gpus , thats 25 fps difference if duel 280s would be around 45 fps with everything turned up.
