Might be thinking of going wide screen.

Does the LCD specs tell you that it supports 1:1 ratio or do we have to find it out ourselves? hmm.gif

Then I think it would be wise the ensure the widescreen that we're going to buy actually supports 1:1!

no need to tweak registry. u wont go wrong choosing wide. because nowadays most games support widescreen except some lazy arse developers saying widescreen would actually be a "cheat"..cough* EA*.

so far, the some games that doesn't support WS are from EA. but BF2142 doesnt look so bad stretched a lil. you can actually change ur res using a command. i've been gaming with WS for almost a year. man, those games sure looks beautiful and natural in WS mode. 4:3 square ratio is so yesterday.

your GC might support it quite well, depends on games u play.
btw, my LCD no 1:1, but i dont think i need them now. because the games i play from FPS, RTS to racing games, all supports WS 16:10 ratio.

read, and get poisoned. LOL... laugh.gif
yeah...if u already got a monitor is ok edi..unless u wanna experiece WS. haha...if buyiing new, i suggest go WS all the way. cos now 22 incher already RM900+ less than 1k. of course do not expect all functions like kianwee said. i bought mine 20" rm1300 last time. sob sob*
btw, i think this thread should go into WS v2.0.

If I upgrade, definitely going for WS. But not anytime soon. Guess I have to sell of my 19" then. Anybody interested in a Dell 19" Narrow screen? whistling.gif

Compared to previous prices of computer parts, I guess todays prices are better. Like you said, previous computer parts are damn expensive. My Samsung 17" 172x used to be rm17xx!!! shocking.gif shocking.gif
