LCD, using it as a monitor/TV

December 8, 2009 10:43:53 PM

I have a LG 32" 1080p LCD & i am using it as a monitor/TV. When using it as a monitor I have to set the resolution 1024 x 768 because I sit about 8' away & if I set the resolution @ 1920 x 1080 everything does not look right & is very small, this there anything I can do about this?

When you say everything is very small I assume you mean the fonts and icons. Just enlarge the fonts and icons and you should be ok. 1920 x 1080 is much nicer than 1024 x 768

Yes fronts & icons. At 8' + away 1024 x 768 does not look bad, matter of fact it looks better i think. Everything is bigger & bolder at 1024 x 768.

Yes I know that was the only thing to do, but I was hoping ATI CCC had something else that would help or I forgot something. Hey thanks for the response.
