Going from 15" to 22"

MadMacs · 19 Dec 2007 at 10:53

Hey atm i'm using a 15" monitor (1024 x 768) :mad:

Getting the samsung 22" pebble for christmas. So I wanted to make sure that i'm geared up before I get the monitor.

What program if any do I need to use to calibrate this monitor?
Also what size wallpapers will I need?
And will I need to change anything with my graphics card? (8800gtx)

I'm also getting another 2gb or ram tomorrow so i'll have 4gb. So hopefully I will be ready for switch.

thanks chris

You will need 1680x1050 wallpapers.

Before you plug it in make sure your refresh rate is set at 60Hz and a res the 22" can display, then plug the 22" in and up the res to its native 1680x1050 res.

Heres a good site for said res wallpapers http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/index.php?w=1680&h=1050&sort=date
