As I've mentioned in another thread, I'm looking to upgrade my Samsung 181T to a widesceen monitor, currently looking at Samsung 205BW.
Something thats been holding me back from upgrading is the native resolution of widescreen monitors and specifically how these affect playing games which is the primary use for my PC. I see a lot of resolutions quoted like 1690 x 1050 or similar but don't generally see these in the game options?
How widely are these resolutions being adopted in new games and for older games how do they look on these monitors? Borders all round or a grossly stretched image?
Finally, whats the minimum size of widescreen I should be looking at? 20"?
Thanks
