What is your screen resolution?

Bizznatch · 8th January 2003, 00:40

I use 1024x768, which is perfect for 17 inch monitors. Once I get my 21 inch I might use 1600x1200.

blumoon11 · 8th January 2003, 00:49

I have a lap top and that is all I know about it

thepyr0x · 8th January 2003, 01:07

I use 1280x1024
it's not there tho
gotta love the 19"

Digipak · 8th January 2003, 01:49

1024x768 on 17".

KelseyB · 8th January 2003, 01:55

yeah, 1034 x 768 is great on 17" monitors, if i get a 19"er, i figure ill up it a level or two

Jay · 8th January 2003, 01:57

800x600 15" monitors and a laptop.

the road guy · 8th January 2003, 01:58

1600 X 1200 on a 19" flat screen..........print is a little small, but it still looks good

GoldenSphynx · 8th January 2003, 02:04

1152x864

RanDom_ErrOr · 8th January 2003, 02:18

1600x1200 on a 19 in Dell 1226H monitor @ 75Hz

zootm · 8th January 2003, 02:20

if you're gonna be pedantic and post frequencies and monitor models...

i'm on an iiyama vision master 17 at 85 Hz.

MetallichicA · 8th January 2003, 03:03

1600x1200 on a Sony 21"

Actually, I also use 1600x1200 on the 19" at work, but it's a little small. Only way I can see an entire newspaper page at once on Quark, though.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 8th January 2003, 03:09

I'm running 1024x768 on a CTX 17" monitor. Works great for me.

DJ Shredder · 8th January 2003, 03:11

You left out 1152x864 in your poll... I'm using that on a 17" monitor with 85 Hz refresh rate.

tiger84 · 8th January 2003, 03:29

I'm just a little odd at 1280x1024 on a 15" Sony Trinitron...and the refresh rate, well, lets just say I don't care enough to know it or look it up.

meaisl8again · 8th January 2003, 03:37

1152 x 864 but that wasn't an option, so I picked the next closest in my mind

, which was 1024 one.

Lots of love,
Mea

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 8th January 2003, 03:41

It's an option now. Anyone want to change their vote?

meaisl8again · 8th January 2003, 04:25

I would if I could, but I already voted...

Lots of love,
Mea

Kalervo Manni · 8th January 2003, 07:31

1024*768 on my 15" CRT. Highest resolution to achieve 85 Hz refresh rate.

Mr. 75MHz · 8th January 2003, 08:33

my resulution is 800 X 600 85 Hertz I can go up to 1280X1024 but the refresh rate is very poor 43 Hertz it does your head in

my monitor is only a cheep 14in so you can't blame it for stuggling at high resulutions

will · 8th January 2003, 08:44

[09:40] <will> screen[1280x1024 32bit 60Hz]

fwgx · 8th January 2003, 08:59

1280 x 1024 on a 17" LG monitor, I don't know about at work, but it's a nice 20/21" monitor I think.

Is this to do with having themes that use 100% screen width on the forums? I think that was mentioned a while ago.

Atmo · 8th January 2003, 09:07

Will:Give 1280x960 a shot, you'll lose a few vertical pixels, but you should be able to run it at a higher refresh (most likely 72hz if you can run 1280x1024@60), and you'll also have the correct 1.33:1 aspect ratio. 1280x1024 is 1.25:1.

If its an lcd where 1280x1024 is the optimum res ignore this post...

I use 1600 x 1200 @ 32bit colour @ 60Hz on a Philips 21"

capitan3 · 8th January 2003, 14:14

I usually use 1024x768 but sometimes it gets to small so i chang it to
800x600, and a laptop.

Agreed

james · 9th January 2003, 00:37

1280*1024 @ 140Hz on a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 740SB.

And the aspect ratio looks perfect at 1.25 but not at 1.33.

jon_joy_1999 · 10th January 2003, 14:21

I have 1600x1200 on a 17 inch monitor. why? you may ask. because it's frikkin cool. I have a 5up3r1337 prog for my Vidcard that lets me fine tune the H-rez, V-rez, and Refresh Rate. (it's a custom rig and I have no clue as to where I got the parts from)
