Hello tom's hardware, I was just wondering.
My television I have my tv hooked up to has a maximum resolution of 1366x768, however, I am able to set it to 1920x1080 in CCC on my Radeon HD 4850.
I was wondering which I should use, and if it would make much of a difference graphically.
My youthful eyes can quite easily read text at 1920x1080, but would it be better to use?
Thank you for your answers.

Hello :)
Well if you are going to use it for normal usage,then keep it on 1366x768,but for gaming its better to play at 1920x1080(however your FPS will be quite lower than 1366x768)

Thank you for your reply. I will have it at native for desktop usage, and have it 1920x1080 for gaming. Frame rate isn't an issue so long as it's playable. As it is, being able to have 200 fps isn't good if your monitor can only display 60 :p

If the television has a maximum resolution of 1366x768 it won't make any difference in making it to 1920x1200 in picture quality.

By setting it to 1920x1080 you're just killing your frame rate.
 

Well HD 4850 is a good card but for same games on 1920x1200 you have to lower the settings :)
