7900GS and a 22''/24'' Monitor

hi, I am thinking of buying a 22'' or a 24'' lcd monitor, and concerned whether my 7900gs will be able to handle the res, I play games i.e lotro, fallout 3. According to the specs on my card it has a max of 2560x1600 but will it struggle at the native res of the 22 or 24 inch monitors?

the 22" will be at 1680 x 1050 I believe and the 24" will be at 1920 x 1080 or 1920 x 1200 The games will probably drop frames if played at that resolution but you can still set the games to a lower resolution if need be to maintain frame rates that are acceptable to you.

 

thanks for your reply bbonkers, if I were to lower the res would I loose part of the screen top and bottom , or would it still fill the screen?
