I run 1680x1050 as well. I was pondering getting a 4870 when I order my parts soon. Is that overkill? Based on some of the posts here perhaps it is.

Ditto, and as mentioned I just crank the AA when I can. I'm a graphics whore, so I have to run everything at max, hence the 4870 .no, my native res is 1680x1050 and the 4870 works well for it. not overkill at all IMO.
If price is a factor.... 1680x1050 is unmatched. Obviously higher resolution is better for gaming, but it also costs quite a bit more money in the long run (bigger display, more powerful/frequent GPU upgrades).
1680 X 1050 is the sweet spot for gaming right now. A 22" LCD monitor can be had for less then $200 and you don't need CF or SLI to run games at this resolution. You can have AA and AF turned on with the current batch of sub $200 GPUs. Gamers have never had it so good.
1680 X 1050 is great for gaming mainly because a ultra high end video card is not required.
Unfortunately, 1680*1050 is a bit small for work (Excel spreadsheet, coding, etc...).
i have a 226bw which is obviously 1680x1050. im using a sapphire dual slot 4850 and its awesome
Because you've used every single one of them. You know what's really awesome? Not being an elitist dumbass.Good yes....awesome no.....no such thing as a 2006/07 TN panel being awesome.
