eastcoast: what are you getting at? Do you seriously beleive that G80 cards look that much worse than G92, despite everything we've said?

I own a G92 and a G80, and i swapped them between systems - the only difference is that the G80 based card seems to like my HDMI adaptor better, and is less blurry in the BIOS when using my TV. there is no difference that i, or anyone else has seen in 2D or 3D use.

Agreed, there could be a ton of reasons however, the monitor on the left is NOT directly facing the camera but slightly angled.

Eh, its kind of hard to tell. Both monitors are angled, but one on the left appears to be directly facing the camera. This may just appear that way to me b/c of the way it looks. You may be right, but I don't know. Either way there are many reasons for this, the video card is almost definatley not one of them (if it is he just has a bad card), thus I too am pretty confused as to the point of this East.

I was thinking that there is something wrong with
-cable used for the monitor
-monitor itself
-something else

I never heard him mention the other video card as a G80 so the comparison is not valid here. What am I getting at? Please re-read the OP

I just so happen to come across a video of showing the old GTS and GTS 512 using 2 PCs, 2 monitors, etc. What caught my attention was the fact that the monitor on the right was a bit washed out. What's the deal? This starts at 5m:12sec
Another interesting tidbit is that there is really no noticeable difference in game immersion (smoothness, speed, responsiveness, etc) when the 2 are compared

Side note:
Are there any other comparisons like this?

If you look at fraps in the upper left corner of the screen the monitor on the right appears to show a higher number then the one on the left. Even so, the game play is nearly identical even though the monitor on the right has the faster card (from what fraps reports).

Ahh then it's even more flawed than i 1st thought. You do not know how that guy set it all up he could of even turned the color down on one of them which is the part i believe is what your getting at. The lack of color in one.

Neither do you ;)
Also, if you remove one color another will be more pronounced. Typical colors are red, green and blue (there are others but this will do)
