Is 1680-1050 good resolution for gaming on an lcd monitor?

Question

20 inch monitor

Answer 1

I can't think of an LCD monitor that will give you a resolution so high. And if it could, I can't think of a video card that would run one of the newest games at that resolution without slowing down the framerate dramatically. You're much better off sticking to the tried and true resolutions like 1024x768

Answer 2

people may say some monitors may not go that high, but i have a samsung LCD from 2001 that can hit 1920x1200 on a GeForce 6200. at that res, the taskbar is tiny, and you can see so much c**p on the screen at once, its crazy.

back to your question, yeah, it's a good resolution. how do you like it?
