Any limits on Resolution or aspect ratio? | Forums

[Poacher886a]

Hi,

Im thinking of buying a 1920x1200 monitor which i would think has a 16:9 aspect ratio....

I would be bitterly disapointed to find SH5 does not support this screen size!!!!

Any ideas, before i wast alot of money.

Thanks

I think that's what I'm using. You'll notice some of my screen shots, though cropped, are almost too wide for the forum - that's why.

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

i am running the game fine on both my laptops, one is 1920x1200, other is 1920x1080

Thanks...thats what it is...16:10

Its good to hear the game supports this resolution!!

On a side note, you have a 24" Laptop????

HDMI into an HD led backlit tv....you never use a monitor again.

added bonus to a HDMI connection is the sound then goes through your cinema sound system.

downside is the mrs constanly whining about having to watch her soaps on the old portable tv.

As far as im aware...TV's dont have either the resolution or the clarity of monitors though, a game like Total war would portay tiny men in the distance as blobs!

We have a HD TV and use HDMI, (not for PC) but up close, it looks as crap and pixaled as they ever did!

majority of tvs these days are fullHD (1920x1080)

silent hunter5, and other games look/play very nice on my 40" Bravia hx700 (just an ordinary LCD)

Just a question of whether u like sitting up close to a monitor, or back a bit with tv
