is it possible that my monitor is to much for my 5850?the card never overheats and i play most games at 1650x1050. it seems to have some drag in games lately. i guess this might be what you guys call shuttering? i was wondering if theres a setting on my card i might be missing?

the 5850 will rape pretty much any res available for most games.

What games is it stuttering on?

A 5850 will kill 1920*1200. That shouldn't be an issue at lower res.

The screen size is not what important, the resolution is. I think ur new screen would be 1920x1080 or 1920x1200. The 5850 will do fine without any problems so don't worry. What driver are you using atm?

ok,thx guys. maybe i'm getting some internet lag. i play codwaw,bc2 but mostly i like playing cod2. this is where i'm getting the problems. maybe i don't have something set right for an older game? i even jumped it up to 850-1200.

the 5850 should have no problems with that res

Maybe your monitor' response time is too high and your getting ghosting.

in cod 2 i know there is an option to enable dual gpu's and maybe you have that turned on?

your drivers?
i have tons of experience with crap drivers from ati, so try to get the latest rev, or the drivers the card came with.
