Yeah lolbeer, 1280x960 is distorted on my monitor :p, while 1280x1024 isn't. I spent many hours switching back and forth between 1024x768, 1152x864, 1280x960, and 1280x1024. I used 1152x864 until I got my r9600 pro, used to have a geforce 2 mx 200 hafaf. Then once I upgraded I went up to meh max which is 1280x1024, at 1280x960 my icons are teh SKINNEH! But I guess I could adjust my monitor so they wouldn't be.... even though without adjustment at 1152x864 its not distorted, neither is 1280x1024, and 1024x768 isn't either... But, my monitor IS a piece of ^^..... so yeah. Ooh I also have the option of 1280x768! Horrible horrible.


But yeah, back to ingame, I usually either use 1152x864, or 1280x1024. I use 1280x1024 in Half-life because my framerate doesn't get hurt RAWR, and my monitor can't even hit 100fps >_>.

I reveal penis I know psychology.

1280x1024 - Native (and max) resolution on my LCD. Anything else (except 640x480) looks blurry.

That means I play at a higher resolution and in some games have to turn the eye candy down a bit, though not much with my 9800 pro.  <3

I play in 1280x800. I have a wide screen laptop. It's nice. :)
I actually play in 800x600 or 1024x768 with my desktop even though it is capable of much higher. I personally believe since the pixels are larger, it's easier to aim, because I have higher accuracy when I play at lower resolutions.

yah rada, i've found that, another wierd thing i noticed is that i play better when i max my fps at 60, rather than runnin git all the way up to 100(like i can, but usually don't).  either way, 1280x1024, anything less makes the text un naturally large for me...i can't stand big things on my computer screen :-(

Hey, I said on first page I have 1024x768, and I still firmly believe me and (after the verbal lashing) bob are the only ones on earth who understand how refresh rates work, and why 60 hz is the devil.

1280x1024 @ 85Hz

I can actually take a still shot of my screen without half of it being blocked out by dark bands of non-refreshness :p

im playing at 12x10
 on a desktop of 3200x1200  which allows me to do two thing at once : get fragged and contemplate my ns map.

( dual monitors make me feel good and they scare the other nerds)

unless im at home where the lap top limits me a bit, ye si know th e desk top should be  at hoome but its not. its out on the town.
