i just checked 1280 x 1024 ...and what did i got?
a 60 hz flickering mess...i think my 17'' crt was not build for that

back to 1024 x 768... 

[Lucaz]

1280 x 1024. And everything looks nice.

[muku]

Me too. 1280x1024 at 75Hz.

Most of the new monitors are widescreen now, but I would prefer a normal one because I'm affraid that playing an emulated game with stretched graphics will just spoil the experience.

Crazy idea: Don't stretch them like that.

In my NVIDIA control panel thing I can choose to scale things to fill the screen, scale things but keep the correct aspect ratio or not scale things at all. I know that some graphics cards that are made out of wood don't let you choose things like that, but like, have an almost half decent one and you're good.

1280x800 here, by the by.

[muku]

I don't know what the deal with those widescreen monitors is anyway. I don't want to watch movies on my PC, that's what I got a, you know, TV for.

[Gnarf]

I think it's mostly to piss off coders.

[Pacian]

1280 x 1024, which is weirdly the only resolution I've used on any computer over the last five or so years, whether at work, uni or home.

[Cheater‽]

I'm so indie, my resolution is 320x240. 

Okay, actually 1280x1024 at 60Hz.

60 hz... i assume on a tft right?
on a crt its flickering like disco lights.

Luckily Firefox has full page zoom or I'd have a constant migraine.

Heh.

I use 1280x800, but I have my browser window permanently sized at about 1024 pixels wide.

[sereneworx]

My perfect resolutions of 1680x1050 and 1280x1024 =D O usually browse on my secondary monitor (the smaller one)

Uh, no. And I get no flickering at all on my CRT. Also, I find higher refresh rates annoying somehow.

[___]

2x 1600 x 1200 for me.  Fuck the widescreens! >:O

[Corpus]

You have an overall resolution of 3200x1200.

That's pretty widescreen.

really?
look slightly above your screen and you see it flickering.
if you go into the settings menu and change it to 85hz while looking slightly above the screen the disco flickering stops.
then you see maybe the difference.

normally the eye consider a refreshrate of 60 times a sec as flickering...and from 85 above it seems to be an unhasty quiet picture.

tft uses different technique and therefore 60 hz already appears calm.

anyways, you say higher refresh rates annoys and 60hz works better for you, no problem

1280x768

If I could I'd have it lower, but it's the native resolution of my laptop monitor.
