well, whats the rest of your system?
Either way, I'd say no, no point in that right now, unless you need to play above 1600 res

The 7800 is akin to having Ultras in sli and dont let anyone tell its not. I have owned Ultras in sli and the 7800gtx actually performs bettter overall .

You buy a 7800 gtx and sell your Ultra. Its birthday money enjoy. You iwll hvae money left over to buy something practicle if you wish

I'd say as long as you are happy with 1280x1024, there's no reason to upgrade for a while.
