B.Ob. Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Nice!! I assume 1600 x 1200 is the native resolution of the screen. Be interesting how games running at a lower res, 8x6 or 10x7 look like for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParoxysM Posted January 28, 2004 Author Share Posted January 28, 2004 Gonna have to play exactly half 800x600 and crank the AA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Gonna have to play exactly half 800x600 and crank the AA... Well, thats good for frame rates!!! I'm sure 1600x1200 would be no problem on older games, UT, Q2, Halflife, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParoxysM Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 I left Halo at 1024 and it played fine, looks the dame same except brighter Some of my other games are tweaked to the res 1024, so I'll probably leave on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious, did you notice any non-square (or different size) pixels at 1024 x 768? Also, what kinda of (desktop) refresh rate can you get on the monitor at 1600 x 1200? I'm curious if it will do 85+Hz at that res. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
