I use 1920x1200 on my macbook pro 17" with Dell 30" Screen ... that was awesome experience!

I'm using 1680x1050 - and it is awesome. Pretty much all games support it and if they don't support it I usually play 1024x768 and it looks great anyways, just a tiny bit pixelated. The only problems is finding wallpapers, noone makes wallpapers for 1680x1050.
You should had included 1680x1050 and 1920x1200 resolution. Next to the old 1024x768 a 1680x1050 monitor is the most common screen nowadays, from what I have heard.

I use 1280*720 in Overture since that's the highest resolution it has, and 1680*1050 in Black Plague and Requiem.

I have almost a thousand wallpapers of that size.

I was just running Overture (Steam version) at 1280*1024.

You can edit (was it the .ini file) to change the resolution to what ever you want.

Thanks, most sites usually only let you download 1024x768 and all resolutions above either cost or have reduced quality. That place seems to have plenty for free though.

I use 1280x1024. I have an old monitor (donĀ“t like flatscreen/LCD).


RE: What resolution do you use? - dragonmaster - 07-26-2009

I use 1600X1200 on a Mac pro, for most gaming, for slower games i use1024X768

For some reason penumbra displays an error that i can't even see, and reverts to 800X600 Sad

Always at native, used to be 1920x1200 but for now will be 1920x1080 for a while.

I dislike the blur effect when you don't play on your native resolution with LCD screens, so even if FPS is too low on native resolution I will resort to setting other settings lower before messing with the resolution.

Even if at the end I must change my resolution I will most likely switch to window mode to prevent getting that blur effect.
