1920 x 1080 Monitors

[pigworthy]

Been looking at getting a new 24" Monitor and standard res is 1920 x 1200 but there are a lot of 1920 x 1080 monitors for quite a bit less. Are there any downsides to this resolution, do GPU's support it? I have a GTX275.

Any suggestion would be helpful. I want a good monitor but I don't want to spend money I don't have to. Thanks everyone.

I have an HP 22" 1920x1080 connected to MSI 8800GT 512 SLI configuration and it works fine with Crysis, BF2, WaW, COD4, DoD:S.

The extra res on the 1920x1200 is nice, but the less cost of the 1920x1080 allows you to view HD movies with no problem.

All modern GPU's support a lot higher resolutions than that. I was thinking about switching out my monitor for a new 1920x1080, however, you will find yourself upgrading your GFX card more often to keep up with the higher resolution. This put me off as i tend to buy a new card every 2-3 years.

Yea I will be using it to work on all day, plus evenings to work and play on. I'm thinking of just biting the bullet and go with the Dell 2408WFP.

My last two laptops have had 1920 x 1200 I I love the quality.

1920x1080 = 16:9
1920x1200 = 16:10

With a 16:10 monitor you should get a little taller screen.
