What resolutions do you guys like to play games at?

[LW07]

Isn't 1280*1024 for CRT and 1280*960 for LCDs?

 

[CP5670]

No it's the other way around.

I generally play stuff at 20x15, except FEAR (12x9) and SCCT (16x12). I only use AA in older games.

 

[XJustMeX21]

left out 1680x1050 for some of us widescreen guys

 

[Rage187]

1920x1080

 

[BFG10K]

Usually 1920x1440 with 16xAF and 4xAA.

 

[dguy6789]

Depends on the game. BF2, Fear, Age of Empires 3, I run those at 1280X960.

All that came out before that, I run at the highest resolution they allow, which is usually 2048x1536. Some games only go up to 1600x1200, so on those, I run with some AA on.

 

[Azndude2190]

With my videocard and monitor...I normally play @1024x768

 

[Zebo]

LOL you forgot most popular res what kind of poll is this?

1680 x 1050 4xAA 8xAF max details.

 

[RobertR1]

1920x1200. highest AA i can run (depending on game) and 16x HQAF.

 

[Ronin]

Max the cards support? 1920x1200, FSAA, Aniso, Gamma, and Transparency.

 

[Zenoth]

DirectX 8.1 Games: 1280 x 960 @ 100 Hz / 6x Adaptive A-A & 16x High-Q A-F
DirectX 9.0c Games: 1280 x 960 @ 100 Hz / 4x Adaptive A-A & 16 x High-Q A-F
OpenGL Games: 1280 x 960 @ 100 Hz / 4x Non-Adaptive A-A & 8x High-Q A-F

 

[Boonesmi]

i prefer 1024*768

 

[MDE]

1600x1200

 

[HamburgerBoy]

>2003 = 640x480
2001-2003 = 800x600
2000 = 1024x768

Exceptions are BF2 (320x240), The Marathon Trilogy (1600x800), and Deus Ex (1152x864). 0xAA, 0xAF, ~40 frames per second.

 

[Corporate Thug]

16x12 (8xAF)

 

[LW07]

1280*1024 seems to be winning ATM.

 

[JBT]

1920x1200 where I can IE BF2 + CS:S ussually 0xAA and 8X AF. I would be satisfied for awhile if I could run 2x AA but I can't at a comfortable frame rate so I need to upgrade soon.

 

[LW07]

Turn down the resolution to 1600*1200 or 1280*1024 and 2xAA will work fine. The X800XT is a fine video card. You don't need to upgrade it yet especially since you're playing at 1920*1200. Just turn down the resolution and the X800XT will run like a champ.

 

[JBT]

My monitor is a 24" widescreen...

 

[KeepItRed]

1280x1024 ~ X1800XT

 

[VERTIGGO]

1920x1200 FTW!! I can't stand to look at my old 19" anymore. It's like looking through a square window. Even my 24" could use more peripheral real estate, but for most games it's perfect.

My standards are run everything at least max quality and 4xAA/8xAF, HDR depending on frame requirements, and in most games I can bump up to 6/16 with Adaptive/HighQual. However, strangely enough, Far Cry is still a killer with AA and especially Adaptive with all those trees. HDR is pretty nice in it though.

 

[stelleg151]

Too general of a question. I like to play RTS and RPG at 1650x1080, but FPS at different res's depending on the game.

 

[Hail The Brain Slug]

1600X1200 at 60 Hz, 4X TMAA 16XAF for everything except F.E.A.R., I run 2X TMAA and 16X AF at 1600X1200

 

[xtknight]

What resolution do I like to play at, or what resolution am I limited to?

1280x1024/75Hz Vsync Triple Buffer 16xAF 4xSSAA for the latter.

 

[NKSRoadKill]

1920 x 1200 for ut2004 2xQ aa 16Xaf
2048 x 1280 desktop (2304 x 1440 text is too small)
