Do you play 5 year old games or own a 800x600 monitor? :biggrin:
If you call Resident Evil 5 and Fallout3 games that is 5 years old. RE5 was released for PC on September 15, 2009 in North America. So RE5 is not even 6 months old yet. Fallout3 was released in North America on October 28, 2008. So that game is little over 1 year and 1 month old. I been playing them at 1280x1024 resolution.
I use a 20" LCD Widescreen which I just got like 4 days ago. It's the Dell E207WPF which has a max resolution of 1680x1050. Back when I first reply I could run them at max settings. I was only using a 17" CRT monitor. Which only offered max resolution of 1280x1024.
Never tryed RE5 or Fallout3 on the 20" LCD yet. So can't really say if I can play them any higher then 1280x1024 yet. But I did try Bioshock at 1680x1050 with high settings. While using fraps to see my FPS. I was getting any where from 30-45 FPS.
