I'm presently running with a Dell XPS 410 with a Geforce 8600 GTS and a 19" monitor LCD running 1280 x 1020.
My problem is that when I purchased the monitor a few years back I was generally unwise in some of the specifics of its capabilities and its response time is in the 18ms range or so it seems. This coupled with the fact that I'd like to have some additional screen space when I'm working at home has me considering the purchase of a new monitor. Namely, this one ASUS VW246H 24".
That monitor has 1920 x 1080 native resolution which I have little doubt would crush my video card like a grape should I try to play any games on it.
So to finally get to the point, with a monitor of that size just how beefy of a video card would I need to get to easily handle something like World of Warcraft or Fallout 3? I've heard some folks mention that I could just run it in non-native resolution but I'd be losing out on the image quality.
