Video for Native 1680x1050

I was looking for a PCIe 16x Card that supports direct x10 and could run a 22" wide LCD native rez of 1680x1050. I was looking at Nvidia 8800 series cards. Problem is most of the time the card skipped this rez on their resolution charts? Strange thing is on EVGAs site the 7900 cards support 1680x1050 but the newer cards do not support it (8800).

The 2 monitors I'm considering - Viewsonic vg2230 and Samsung 226bw both support 1680x1050 native. Can anyone help in thie regard? This is for a casual gamer who uses their PC mostly for web, email and MS office stuff but want to have fun from time to time. I was hoping for a 256bit dx10 card with 320 or 512 megs. I am not opposed to ATI, so if someone could point at a card or a site that allows me to search video cards by resolution support that would be ideal.

They do. They just skipped it on the charts.

What does eVGA not list 1680x1050 as a selectable resolution on their website?

I have an 8800 gts 640 and a 226bw and it works perfect at 1680x1050.

The 226bw is fantastic, you'll love it if you get it.

That's just showing refresh rates at common resolutions. You linked to my card and it's running just great at 1680x1050. But buy the 8800GT if you can, faster for the same money.

I use an Acer 22" AL-2223W and am very happy with it. Only complaint is some backlight bleeding like most TN's have displaying dark images. Anyway, I'd buy the same monitor if buying again. Black version of this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6824009102

My friend's Radeon 9800PRO runs a 1680x1050 monitor...although there are issues with launching 3D on his card when starting in that resolution, so he limits horizontal res to 768...but still, anything newer should support that resolution if it's worth buying.
