+Fates Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 That's the aspect ration. Normal television is 4:3 aspect ratio. of you divide 768 by 1024 you get an aspect ratio of 4:3 HDTV is 16:9 aspect ratio Quote
JediMaster Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 I've got a 19" 4:3 monitor from ViewSonic and it's great, but I'd hesitate to get a monitor that wasn't WS now. Most newer games do/will support it, but if you play many older ones you may have some troubles, so it does depend on your intended use. Quote

I've got a NEC MultiSync 75 that's 7 years old so I can run any older games on it. The only two older games that I would want to run on the new monitor will be IL2 1946 and BOB WOV, since it will be incorporated in the cockpit. Quote
JediMaster Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I replaced my KDS 19" CRT with this Viewsonic because the picture had deteriorated after 5 years. The blacks were gray, the colors were pale... Quote
Hawk MMS Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 We have 2 monitors running at work 24 hours a day 365 days a year. We started off with 2 20" Viewsonics. 1 blew out about a year ago and we replaced it with a samsung 20". Currently we have a viewsonic with 2 years and a samsung with 1 year. i replaced the viewsonic with the samsung becasue of the quality/dollar amount of the unit. It works great. Quote
