1920 x 1200 reso compared to 1440 x 900 ? - Page 3

post #41 of 45
I still say 19x12, its true 1080p no other res will ever offer that!

As far as 16x10, its just that 16x10- not a 16x9 res therefore any interpolation into a 16x9 res will be off!

As to the between 14x9 anr 19x12 you asked earlier, when I said you actually get both this is whats meant: you will have 19x12 amount of pixels and can then run 19x12 resolution on it 1:1, but b/c 14x9 is still a 16x9 aspecct ratio it scales perfectly onto the 19x12 pixels with no stretching/compression/scaling errors.

Say you want to run a full screen 1080p Bluray or a 1080p wmv or say a 1080p xbox360 game on a 16x10 screen you will end up letterboxing bars or a stretched image that is not accurate! Even a native 14x9 screen is still a 16x9 aspect and although you will lose a little of the overall res of a 1080p source, it will run fullscreen at the correct aspect so everything is in proper proportion and no letterboxing.

get 19x12, run it at that for gaming/movies - set it to 14x9 for normal use.

hope this helps

1900x1200 = games

1280x800 = typing.

1280 x 800 is perfect for typing. 1440x990 is still a little small for me.

oh my bad, I thought we were talking bout the two screen options that most probably available for the beast: 19x12 and 14x9.
