THat is for each monitor. You can run both of them at 1680X1050 easily. The 25X16 is the max res the card will support. In others words youd need a 30" monitor to max out the card.

Yep. But if I was running dual 30s Id probably want more than a 9800 GTX. 1680X1050 is about the max res that card will comfortably support while gaming.
