2048 X 1152. I know 4670 can handle more than 1024 X 768, why don't you set it higher?

1440x900 is my monitor's max resolution, at least it allowed me to go with a little less VRAM.

1600x1200 for the most part. In older games, 1920x1440 or 2048x1536.

how does that look? I've always looked at monitors in the sense of Pixels per square inch. but i've been looking at getting a nice 40-46" plasma and was unsure if pixels become visable.

I usually play games at 1680x1050 and sometimes at 1024x768 (No scaling) if it's too much for my GPU. While we're at it though, may I ask what's so great about high resolutions? Sharpness is defined by pixel pitch and not by resolution so it's not sharpness. Is it the larger working space? If so, then low resolution textures in games simply appear bigger and it's more noticeable whereas when playing at low resolutions, despite being smaller they will be less noticeable.

i enjoy larger screens, easier to see, more immersive and such. bigger screens mean you need more pixels or else it's stretching

Waiting for 120hz 24" monitors, no idea when they will be out though.

Looks fine but IMO the immersion in fps in a 20" monitor at 50 cm is higher than in a 46" display at 250 cm, because the angle of vision is higher at short distance; the good part of the tv is since the resolution is very high and you're playing at certain distance the aliasing is less evident if you turn off this feature in high demanding games as Crysis or ArmA II.
