1) Nvidia 6200
2) Vizio 32" (Circuit City version)
3) DVI->HDMI converter @ 1280x768

also

1) Nvidia 6150 (Asus Onboard video)
2) Optoma 1080p Projector HD80
3) DVI->HDMI @ 1080p/60

I think modelines and what not are mainly a thing of the past.  The nvidia
drivers are better and the TVs are better.  Both my TV's work by just
plugging them in and using the nvidia-settings GUI to autodetect the
setings.  This also worked on my fathers 5 year old 1080i Sony Wega HDTV.
