My bad, this 30 inch Dell runs at 2560x1600 native.

Also, I dug into my graphics card and it may not be SLI.

Nvidia Quadro FX 3450 SDI. Dual DVI to drive the LCD, but not SLI I don't think.

Two mistakes in one post. My bad.

Still doesn't change the fact that HL2 looks awesome fullscreen with AA.

I read somewhere that the human eye is approximately 4000x2000 resolution. This rig is getting close, but HDR monitors would be nice (like brightside http://www.brightsidetech.com/ with lots of individually controlled LEDs behind the pixels). Another decade...

Your card supports SLI but if you are only have one card you are not running in SLI. If you have 2 cards and use the SLI bridge and choose to run SLI in the nvidia control panel you are running SLI, if you haven't done this you are not running SLI.

(read you can sli without the bridge but you don't get optimal performance)

Alter the aspect to 16:10 first. That unlocks the widescreen resolutions.

Can you set your DESKTOP RESOLUTION to 1680x1050?

I think he already has 16:10 AR selected, 1920x1200 is clearly visible in the list.
