No, it can't. Your monitor only displays 1280x1024 at most, whatever you have it set to.

...Clueless

Monitors have a native resolution as well as a maximum resolution shev.

..whatever your OS can push it to: 1280x1024 is the native resolution for your monitor (according to The_One, a wise enough man for me to trust :p) and anything above it will cause it to run at less than optimal conditions (bye eyes, bye sharpness and detail) despite the fact that saying you have a 'big' resolution increases your e-penis size.

However, I might add that running above native resolution isn't all that big a problem all the time

I'm kind of pushing it as well, but I'll happily give up a bit of sharpness for a better overview on what I'm doing on the desktop. As soon as I'm playing a game or whatever though: it's back to a lower reso (also for the fact my computer can't run UT2004 very well over 1024*768)

oh my e-penis grows if you have a bigger resolution?

cool.

*plugs it into 2048x1536* (sec)

And yes messy.. i do know... good thing is, 1600x1200 is still nice and sharp, and even if i dont notice, my eyes are fine with it O_o.

1920x1200 is just a tad squashed version of 1600x1200... but its fucking useful trust as its the only widescreen option my montior gives..

p.s. why arent people using 1280x960 :s its 4:3 :A

1280x1024 is a bullshit resolutiong, its not even 4:3

I use 1600x1200x100hz on the right
and 1024x768 on the left

Post by **The_One** » 31-05-2006 17:06

It's a VESA standard though. Been around longer than 1280x960. Plus it would be a bit stupid running a 4:3 resolution on a 5:4 LCD. LCDs are 5:4 because of substrate size.

pictures get messed up, i cant render with 1280x1024...

anyway.

1600x1200 and 1024x768 are just the best reso, they are the two i use the most, but with 1920x1200 when i wanna read more stuff
