That would be great. I am very happy with my TFT just my 17"crt went up to 1600x1200 and Its the only thing that really lets my TFT down is the 1280x1024 limit. I just couldn't find any 17" ones with a higher res Cry

Well the one I found was advertised as 1600x1200 but when my mate got it and we set it up it was a max of 1280x1024!! it was false advertisement Cry

he got a refund

I think I must now be right in saying there are NO 17" TFT's that go above 1280x1024. So how the other guys does is beyond me.

I have found a 19" TFT that goes up to 1600x1200 but its very expensive and I lost the link now. Once you get to 21" most descent ones do 1600x1200.

Myself I got rid of my TFT and brought a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 19"CRT. Its purely amazing, a bit big but the picture quality is excellent. Its got a super bright modes so you can get the same vividness as a tft too Grin

And it goes up to some silly high res 1940x14** I cant remeber but when I get my 6800Ultra its gonna kick ass Grin

I had a quick look for that 19" tft as I remebered it was made by ACER. But I gotta feelin theirs was mis advertised too Angry

The smallest TFT with 1600x1200 I can find is 20.1" and isn't going to be cheap Embarrassed

Thats why I was askin where the other guy found his as I was sure you couldn't get a 17"tft that runs at 1600x1200.

I am going to stick with my CRT for now, until i either have enough money to get a really decent 17" TFT or get a really decent high res CRT.

Well now I got one of the next gen cards on order to be good the monitor has to do high res, i.e. 1600x1200. I cant see 17"tft's doing this for a while and when they first do they will be extremely expensive Embarrassed

If your after high res and good pic quality then you will probably have to find a 19"crt with a Diamond tube in it. Think they are currently the best tubes for CRT's around at the moment. Plus you can pick up a 19" CRT like this for cheaper than a 17"tft.
