Hi guys,
I'm just about to place an order for an LCD screen (either a Samsung LE32R74BD or a Toshiba 32WLT66 - most likely the Samsung) however i'm not sure whether my graphics card will be compatible with it.
Basically i have an Asus Radeon 9600XT with the latest drivers etc including Catalyst Control Centre. However i have checked the resolution options i have available and it doesn't output 1366x768. The nearest it outputs at is 1360x768.
I'm not too clued up on this new stuff at the moment, so what exactly does that mean? Will i not get a perfectly clear picture if i run at 1360x768? It's VITAL that i get a perfectly clear picture that is judder/flicker free since i am epileptic.
Also, would it be possible to that i would have more resolution options available once i connect the LCD to the graphics card as opposed to my monitor? I thinking maybe the graphics card will recognise that a new device has been connected and thus give me different options???
I have read some of the other thread regarding some software (can't remember the name now) that allows you to create custom resolutions but i'm still not sure on that regard - that thread in some places gets way too technical or just goes off topic.
So what are my options guys? If i had to purchase a new graphics card i don't mind doing that either, so if that's the case, then please recommend me a few graphics cards that will support the native resolution (1366x768) of a 32" LCD. I won't be playing games, it'll just be for normal PC use so anything middle-of-the-range will do.
It's VITAL that i get a perfectly clear picture that is judder/flicker free since i am epileptic. Therefore i would appreciate your help on this - and sorry if it's been covered before.
