| Sorry, I'm a bit confused about your reply - you say your card had no problems driving the resolution, but the game raped your video card to pieces. :? OK, I probably wasn't clear enough - what I should have said was: "but my vidcard (7900 GTO 512) won't run a 24 at native res (of 1900 x 1200) at a ... |

| TVM to all for the encouraging and informative replies. I really needed that :) . After reading so much negativity it seemed to me that each panel type had showstopping drawbacks, and you've done much to allay my uncertainty.

| My aging P275 is simply past it. I'm really looking forward to Widescreen gaming, but after waiting so long to go LCD, I'm kinda terrified by the apparent compromises associated with LCD Panel technology.
