Just got my Acer G24 setup..

I was expecting to have to rush online to OCUK and purchased the very latest £300 graphics card...

However....

I was very surprised to find that my clock'd 8800 GT OC still manages to power the 24 very well...

I have tested on farcry2 at 1920 x 1200 with everything on high.. (no AA)

Can someone tell me what advantage a new £300 card will give me.. and what advantage AA at max will have ?
 
The GFX card i'm using is Clocked, and I have also clocked it higher 760MHz core clock, which is a 60MHz increase over the stock 700MHz core clock. The memory clock was harder to push and the highest I could get it was 960MHz (1920) from the stock 920MHz (1840) memory clock. The shader clock was stock at 1700MHz and I raised that to 1818MHz.
Omega drivers seem to be be the way forward as far as performance and stability are concerned, as tried the newest Nvidia ones and it crashed during games almost straight away.
COD - Modern warfare is looking awesome at 1900 x 1200 on high.

Would I benifit from 2 x £100 ATI cards in x-fire, or one £200 ATI card, and if so which ones should i go for...
Or should i just push the boundaries out to a £300 card...??
