You guys need to understand that this is 4 monitors, not just one massive 2880x900 monitor. the 2880x900 is the combind resolution of all 4 monitors. I am highly doubtful that Crysis or any other game is actually being rendered in 2880x900. What is mostlikely happening is the games are rendered in a high, but not quite that high res, and then the monitor it self has a scalar chip that scales the picture across the other monitors so it fits.
That why it keeps the gpu from having to render games at insanely high resolutions and there should be no hardware impact from the monitor it self. I am sure you have the option to render in 2880x900 if you want, but I would bet that crysis and most other games will simpley be rendered at something like 1600x1200 and then upscaled across all of the monitors.
