The 1920x1200 resolution is a little more down to earth really. Look at that outdated GeForce 9800 GX2 go, it couldn't shine in 2560x1600 because it was a little memory limited with 512MB per GPU.
If you play your games at 1920x1080/1200 then really with all eye candy ad 4xAA enabled all you need is a 100 USD Radeon HD 4830 or even old GeForce 8800 GT.
We are now at a stage where Radeon HD 5870 Crossfire caves in, it's multi-GPU mode is requiring a lot from the CPU, as such we see massive CPU limitation for ATI's multi-GPU solutions. NVIDIA is suffering way less from this issue and definitely shines.
