I recently purchased a Viewsonic VX2433WM monitor that does 1080p. Max resolution is 1920 x 1080. Is this resolution supported by most games? I notice that most benchmarks for video cards run at 1920 x 1200. Am I ok with this monitor or do I need to get one that supports 1200 vertical resolution?
Thanks all,
John

Yes if it supports widescreen it supports this resolution. At least all the games I have.

all newer games have 1920x1080 selectable right from the menu. some older games wont but there will always be a way to force it if it doesnt. widescreengamingforum.com will have a solution for any of those older games so dont worry.

Thanks for the responses. I particularly appreciate the pass to windscreengamingforum.com... that's exactly the type of site I've been looking for.

I highly recommend the Dell 2209WA for gaming it has almost zero input lag its very very nice monitor
it is an e-IPS panel very efficent runs on 40w
