What's your favorite screen resolution?

I'm partial to 1024 x 768

 

1280x960 on my home pc's

 

1280x1024 on a 19in @ home

 

1280 x 1024 on 17inch crapcrt

 

32 inch diagonal -- better than 34 or 36 for picture quality in non-Hi Def . . . oh, you mean computer screen. . .

 

I like my res-es with no 0's in it. That'll get yer moneys worth Nah seriously, I use 1152x864 cause i can fit a maximised IE window @ 800x600 or 1024x768 without it filling the whole screen (good for designing/coding. And also i like my writing small so i can fit lots of stuff on my lil monitor. I also run Winamp at scale 75% for the same reason.

 

1600x1200 75 Hz
only problem is finding decent wallpaper.

 

1280x960 @75hz on a 19in LCD using DVI. It supports up to 1280x1024 @75hz (I thought LCDs didn't use above 60hz?)


1280x1024 does not follow proper....whatchacallit, aspect ratio of 3:4 for non wide screen monitors.

 

ur such a blargh

 

works great for me max my monitor supports

 

I used to run that before this LCD.

 

Oh it works, but it skews things just slightly out of proportion

If you have a game that supports both, try it out.


In Dark Age of Camelot, if you choose 1280x1024 vs. 1152x864, you will notice the round circles that are used to drop down menus at the top of the screen are oval, not a circle.

Go back to 1152x864, and they are perfectly round again.

 

ill try it out, although I got bored of dark age after a few weeks of 50 and sold my account so ill try another game

 

1280x960 is the true round aspect ratio. If you're doing any graphic work then that's what it needs to be.

 

Yeah that game held little for me once I hit 50 too.

 

am looking forward to world of warcraft check it out. I missed first pick betas but I did happen to find an alpha that was circulating and I think I will like it much better

 

I run two monitors off an ATI Radeon 9800 XT:
DVI: 1600x1200 60Hz (native) 32bit 21.3" Samsung 213T TFT
CRT: 1600x1200 85HZ 32bit 22" ViewSonic P225f ag

My eyes won't let me go any higher on any card/monitor combo.

 

I'm running 1600 x 1200 on my 21" CRT. I like the small icons and I can get alot on my screan. For wall paper a little different, go here

1400x1050 on 19" 1600 a bit too much and 1280 too little. Not offered by ATI drivers as standard but can be fixed with tweakers or Omega drivers. He have quite a few extra res, all in 3:4 aspect. Good options also for optimizing games. I prefer normal non-tweaked ATI drivers but found it easy to copy and paste from Omega and get those resolution without having to run Powerstrip or whatever Hard to understand why ATI hide those res.

1360x1020
1400x1050
1520x1140
1600x1000

are those I have been testing, good for 19" or higher users. Omega did a nice upgrade in one of the later versions. Now possible to change refreshrate no matter res, before you had to pick a fixed setting.

Suppose Rivatuner can do the same for Nvidia cards.
