[QUOTE="Computer.Geek, post: 1529363, member: 7028"] Hi, It's been a long time since I've posted here but I'm desperate for advice because I can't find much info online and need to go back to the source of expert advice. I have a 13 inch late 2009 MacBook Pro with 8gb ram and a Nvidia 9400M integrated video card. I'm looking to get the Dell u2412hm 24 inch display with 1920x1600 resolution. I know spec wise that my computer can support up to 2560x1440 but I read about users experiencing a system slowdown using screens with this resolution (which eliminated my option of going for the Dell u2713). Will I experience any performance hits using the 1920x1200 resolution? If so, I will stick with the regular 1080p displays. I currently use a 22 inch Samsung with no problem and have no problem sticking with this size if need be although a bigger screen would be nice to allow me to lean back on my chair and type :) Please share your advice or experience with using any of the monitors I've mentioned. Thank you, C.G. [/QUOTE]
