Display Info: (4096x1536 32bit 75Hz) ¤ Monitor: (IBM 6652-U3N P275)

2048x1536 on each of my 21inchers
which is equivalent to 1600x1200 on a 19"
I'm using 120dpi setting in windows, so everything looks normal in size, but I get the extra desktop space.

Desktop @ 1600x1200

Most games 1024x768

Older (faster) games or less demanding games (CMBB, C&C Generals) 1600x1200

-D'oh!

My favorite is 1152x864 (100Hz).
A lot of games don't support it, then comes the good ol' 1024x768.
