I was about to build a system for university that is going to be used mainly for internet/research/some rendering and a lot of typing
However, i am doing it on a tight budget and would like to include a 22 inch monitor with 1680x1050 resolution (reason is i can get an LG L226WTQ cheap at my local store). Other specs are pretty medium with an athlon X2 5200+ or a core duo E6350 and 2gb RAM.
My question is, should I ever want to game, I would propably want to do so at the native resolution, right? Which cards can run this resolution in current games? Even medium settings are enough and I wasn't expecting AA/AF anyway.
I was thinking somewhere along the lines of X1950pro/2600xt/8600gt
Cliffs
-22" monitor 1680x1050
-No AF/AA/High settings needed
-video card suggestions?
