With my single 22" digital screen I could run FSX at the maximum resolution of the screen which is 1920 x 1080 32 bit colour but I did get occasional very very slight jerkyness. Remember that this is with 4 GB RAM not 2 however and FSX is very RAM intensive as you know - I also doubled the size of the HD virtual RAM cache. I never used a frame rate display however so I can't tell you the exact frame rates.
Because I cannot yet afford two matching 22" digital screens, my side monitors for the MATROX surround display are the TAXAN 17" CRT from my previous XP PC and a DELL 19" CRT from a friend's old rig. This mixture of CRT & Digital monitors from different manufacturers introduces other problems as the highest resolution that is shared by all three is 1024 x 768 & 32 bit colour, so my triple display is restricted to 3072 x 768 but still runs smoothly with all sliders maxed out in FSX.
