I am currently using 2400x600. I do not see any options for a better resolution than that.

What are you guys using? And is there a trick to getting higher resolutions?

No trick as far as I know ...
I'm running it at 5040x1050 but in XP.
I have always had all the TH resolutions available to me in the game.

Problem solved.
How ?... may be it will help others that get the same problem as you.

Its just a matter of time. I doubt big bang will be the answer to our solutions, but to me it sounds like they (nvidia) are heading that way. If it is indeed only 2 monitors now, then the next logical step would be to go for 3 monitors.

I'm limited to 3840x800 right now in Vista x64 (can't figger put how to get games to work at 5040x1050 - although the desktop will). Have to use Vista due to my Tri-SLI setup.

I run 4x antialiasing to make up for the low res, but am going to start using 2x since the difference is nearly undetectable while playing and it gives me a nice little fps boost.

I get around 45-60FPS most places, with occasional dips into the low 20's.

I run "Enthusiast" on everything except objects which I left on "Gamer" because I can barely tell any difference. I also actually prefer the look of Shadows on "mainstream" of all things - and it makes the game faster. But I didn't spend $1300 on the graphics subsystem to turn down settings - so I usually just leave it on "Enthusiast"! YMMV.

Frankly, I'm slightly disappointed that the most powerful system available (3 GTX 280's) is unable to do better. I guess that's just the Cryengine2 for you! :(
