That would be great. I am very happy with my TFT just my 17"crt went up to 1600x1200 and Its the only thing that really lets my TFT down is the 1280x1024 limit.  I just couldn't find any 17" ones with a higher res  :'(

Well the one I found was advertised as 1600x1200 but when my mate got it and we set it up it was a max of 1280x1024!!  it was false advertisement  :'( he got a refund

I think I must now be right in saying there are NO 17" TFT's that go above 1280x1024.  So how the other guys does is beyond me.

I have found a 19" TFT that goes up to 1600x1200 but its very expensive and I lost the link now.  Once you get to 21" most descent ones do 1600x1200.

Myself I got rid of my TFT and brought a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 19"CRT.  Its purely amazing, a bit big but the picture quality is excellent.  Its got a super bright modes so you can get the same vividness as a tft too  ;D  And it goes up to some silly high res 1940x14** I cant remeber but when I get my 6800Ultra its gonna kick ass  ;D

I had a quick look for that 19" tft as I remebered it was made by ACER.  But I gotta feelin theirs was mis advertised too  >:(

The smallest TFT with 1600x1200 I can find is 20.1" and isn't going to be cheap  :-[   Thats why I was askin where the other guy found his as I was sure you couldn't get a 17"tft that runs at 1600x1200.

I am going to stick with my CRT for now, until i either have enough money to get a really decent 17" TFT or get a really decent high res CRT.

Well now I got one of the next gen cards on order to be good the monitor has to do high res, i.e. 1600x1200.
