Hi, recently I picked up a 24" Dell G2410 (1920X1080) to go along side my 22" LG L227WT (1680X1050).

I'm running a 4870 512Mb graphics card and typically I run two instances of a game on separate screens. Now performance was obviously degraded running the two instances, but I was wondering if say a 4890 would help me to up the detail/AA on them or whether it will simply be a case of lower performance due to the way I have the games running?

Cheers
 
a 4890 would help, your main problem with that card coping with 2 monitors is the 512mg RAM rather than 1 gig, however Id hold out til new 5800 series is out anytime now
