I believe SDE is the gap between pixels which I believe is not resolution dependent. I think you mean pixelization. In any event, both will probably be issues. Plan on sitting about 14' away from your screen. I have an 854x480 DLP on a 76" screen and that distance works for me.

You can read more about these issues on avsforum.com.

CTX Panoview 540 and 530's are good, 540 is better for video tho, easly stripped, would only use the 530 for desktop use and cartoons like futurama, that looks good on it.

640x480 both
530 = 9.5"
540 = 10.4"
contrast ratio 100:1, looks good projected
active matrix on both

cheers,
Ryan Edge

edit: i think it looks ok at 400" but if you dont like screendoor atall keep it smaller.
DIY compatible monitors list

So I'm sure at 80", you're reasonably "safe" from screendoor...
