OK so im thinking of making my very own computer room Im thinkin of getting me a 32inch lcd 1080p HD tv as my monitor but Ive always wanted a projector so with videocards this powerful I was thinking if you can do it. If I do get a projector can I run games at 112" on my projector with all graphics cranked up? and if so what kind of videocard should I get or should I get sli?

The 1080p HDTV is going to have a recommended resolution of 1920x1080. You can get a projector that will natively display at that same resolution, but it will cost quite a bit of cash. I did try playing a game on my projector (once). It has a max resolution on 1280x768 and I did not care for it, but that's my personal experience.

To play games using displays with high resolutions, you're going to want a graphics card that can handle it. Probably something along the lines of an HD4850/GTX260 or higher. SLI/Crossfire would assist in smoothing out gameplay at higher resolutions/graphic settings (if necessary).
