My computer is getting old and thinking of upgrading soon. I have 2405fpw monitor and wish to make good use of it by running games at 1920 x 1200 resolution whenver supported. The question is whether I should buy 7800GTX or 1800XT and do you think I would need to run 2 graphic card to support my monitor resolution? The price drop on 7800GTX is very tempting, but 1800XT quality on AA can't be overlooked as well. What's your expert opinion?

Soon as in 1-3 months time and the upgarade will include the following four: CPU, MoBo, RAM, GPU.

Yah, I heard that it has issues with BF2 running at 1920 x 1200 and most recently the "7800GTX fails Shader Model 3.0 test" issues.
