On my case use 4:3 Monitor CRT (Samsung 17) but use virtual desktop for see stay on linux (if you use fullscreen everybody can think you stay using windows) and for other details as steam beta version used, nvidia driver panel (on this apears gpu % use, mount of ram used and other things)

On my case i have show a minor idea about wine performance on resolutions closer to HD and much people need this information

On my hardware only try for resolutions closer to HD, on this resolutions fps performance depend more of cpu (and screencasting use 20% to 30% of cpu) however on higher resolution fps performance depend more of vga, my vga its not adequate for HD and upper resolutions)

And good side if on my case runs good with this hardware, other people with more powerfull hardware (CPU - GPU) have many chances on higher resolutions

1080p testings leave to other users with more powerfull hardware, for example user with your hardware: (AMD FX-8320 (i5) - Asus GTX 660 Ti 2GB DirectCU II - 16 GB DDR3 (1866Mhz)

Back to topic do you test wine 1.7.22, on my case i have testing the darkness 2 and appears fps improvemts (like other titles show up in this post)
