Hi All,
All the video card tests I read push the respective cards at 1600x1200 resolution and they always use that as a benchmark. I just bought an NEC LCD1970GX 19" LCD that has a maximum resolution of 1280x1024. Do I really need a card that runs smooth at 1600x1200 or can I get away with a cheaper model.
Example, could I get the same performance from a NVIDIA 7800GT as I could with a 7800GTX or is there more to it than that? Even though the GTX is a better card I can't fully realize it's resolution.
Thoughts?
