[QUOTE="jonnyd, post: 401939, member: 31029"] Lcds can be odd creatures. You are really pretty much stuck with one resolution on an LCD monitor, referred to as it's 'native' resolution. Basically what it means is that if your monitor has 1280 x 1024 pixels, if you set any other resolution it has to kind of 'smudge' the picture to make it fit. For sure you'll get other options with the new hardware, but you won't necessarily get a better picture if you choose them. Just FYI, I'm running 17" Samsung LCDs at 1280 x 1024 on an NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT, and it looks great. [/QUOTE]
