    Posted: 28 Jan 2008 at 4:28pm

I was just wondering what resolutions people were using in games?  I max mine out when the game allows.  I run COD4 at 1680 x 1050 and it is just beautiful!!!

I can not believe how I spent all those years at 1024 x 768 and thinking it was great!
 
This new system and 22 inch flat panel is freaking amazing.

1280x1024. Limited to my LCD's max (native) resolution like everyone else. This resolution is actually pretty good though, its fine enough to not have to enable FSAA. Honestly, with FSAA on, I can't really tell the difference. I can though at 1024x768 and under. :D
