| Post subject: | Help with monitors and game resolution. |
I'm thinking of either getting a 20 inch or 19 inch LCD screen, i want to get the 20 inch, it runs at a native of 1680 x 1050, and i want to game on it. But so far, i've checked AoE3 and CSS for the screen resolution ingame, and both show it as max when viewing it through my system as 1200 x 1024. Is this true? i thought most games could run at a res of 1600 x 1050. Or is it that the game just knows that i'm running the game through a 17inch screen and that it will only go up to the next high level being 1200 x 1024? I'm asking, cause on my system I'll defiantly be playing these, along with other games like Company of Heroes, Supreme Commander, Medieval 2 Total War. So do most games out now can be run at 1600 x 1024? Like is anyone running games like AoE3 or UT2k4 or CSS at high resolutions like 1600 x 1024? Thanks, answer as fast as you can please, i might be buying my system tomorrow. |

Remember that in-game settings only display the resolutions your current monitor supports, there are exceptions of course. Widescreen support depends entirely on the game engine. Most, if not all, today's games support it 110%. You just need to play with config files in rare cases if there is no option for it in the in-game menu. |
