today I found out that my 50" TV has a DVI port in the back of it, so I took my PC outside and hook it up with a RES of 1164x664 (Give or take a few pixels) Compared to my 17" NEC @ 1280x1024. Anyways I benchmarked 3d mark 06 and Scored about 1200 higher on my 50 in than on my 17 inch. Now im confused because I thought that I would my score would go down because I heard that SLI would only help if I was gonna run at super high res. instead it went up :)

17" = 8900

50" = 10200

Please Some1 explain

1164x664 is a lower resolution than 1280x1024, so that is why you scored higher.

sli would sometimes give you a negative return when you run at super low resolution, but 1164x664 is by no means super low

as for your score going up when switched to 50", it's because you're running a lower resolution on your tv
