I know it is a waste on a 22"
Will be upgrading to 26" or 30" in the next month or two
NVidia keeps on postponing, so lets see what happens :-)
Will post some screenshots later tonight or tomorrow after I ran 3DMark vantage

Awesome card.

EDIT: review a bit rushed Tinman?
You missed a heading:

What the mind can conceive, it can achieve.
This card is a beast that tramples all over anything in its way.
The real problem is that there aren't really any games at the moment that require this kind of power. Crysis/Warhead maxxed out and Dirt 2 DX11 maxxed out, those are pretty much the only games that put any load on it.
Still a great card with a very impressive set of features. As far as top of the line cards go, its not only bang for buck, but the top performer as well and is quite futureproof.
