7800 worth the switch?

I have 2 x 6800 ultras in SLI. Should I rush to ebay and sell them? According to this, 2 6800's are approx. 20% better than 1 7800. Keep in mind that my LCD has a max resolution of 1280x1024. To switch or not to switch?

If your current rig runs everything how you want it too then I don't see a point in upgrading.

I bought a 7800 because I am not happy with the performance in the games I play and because I am building an entirely new system. BF2, MSFS2004, and LOMAC ALL could use a better system then what I currently have in order to run at the settings I desire.
 
Its probly not worth it since youre LCD doesent do higher resolutions but you would get a little better image quality, less power consumption, and I think that by the time new GPU's come out to drive the price of the 7800GTX down youre 6800u's will have droped in resale value as well.
