I do not see why people think that playing at massive resolutions in games is such a big deal. Then again, I am writing this from a screen that only does 1280x1024.
In my experience, lowering the resolution does have more of an affect on performance than lowering other settings on the free drivers. Probably has something to do with CPU bottlenecks.

First of all with a tft you have to use the native res otherwise it is interpolated - thats different from a crt. That does not look good at all, but when you only want to see the impact then you can try it of course. fglrx is much faster for games usually, maybe not for the extreme simple ones michael usally tests that do not even need s3tc/float textures.

That's the reason I never tried it at a lower resolution. I don't like blurry interpolation, and it played fine for me at the low FPS.
And, for a quick update, the average FPS went up to 17-23 FPS, with the latest driver update.
