Dual Monitor Performance Differences

I have 2 Dell E207WFP 20" Widescreen LCD monitors @ 1680x1050, running off a Geforce 8800GTS 512MB.

When playing Portal, on one screen (the newer one, set as default monitor but connected to the 2nd DVI port on my 8800) I get 140 FPS with max settings, but vertical sync doesn't work even though I've enabled it. On the other screen, vertical sync works, but I only get 20 FPS (60 FPS should be normal right?) I'm using nVidia's dual-view for my setup.

Can anyone tell me why I'm getting these differences between screens? Why does vertical sync work on one screen but not the other?

Any help would be grand.
