Thats a great screen you chose..
The native resolution is awesome(1680 x 1050 pixels)
If you choose that, beware your text is gonna be very small, but theres no reason to have pixelated photo's, just play arounf with your resolution.. |

Yep, and... make sure the "color quality" is set for "highest (32-bit)."
To set this, right-click on the desktop, click properties and when the dialog box appears click the settings tab. On the right is the color quality setting.

always use the native resolution for an LCD monitor to get the sharpest quality. As for small text, just go to system display settings and select larger font size. |
