How can you find out the resolution on a video card

[iamrichardcarrera]

I have an ATI Radeon X1650 video card. It's top resolution is 1600 x 1200, and my 23" HP monitor's native rssolution is 1900 x 1080. Where do I find the resolution stats for a dual video card that offers resolution up to or beyond 1900 x 1080? Also, does it matter if I use a regular PCI or do I have to stay with PCI Express? I also need a VGA out, as my HP monitors do not inputs for DVI, which means the EVGA GeForce 620 won't work for me. I don't care what brand it is, so long as it supports at least 1900 x 1080.

PCI based graphics are going to be tough to get 1080p on.

As far as PCI-e based cards, check on Nvidia's website or AMD's website for specific resolutions for a graphic card.

You can also check max res supported on Newegg.

most new video cards toss in a hdmi or dvi to vga adaptore. if not there about 6.00 on new egg. the hard part with your old pc is the size of your power supply and the mb to find a newer video card that will fit your system.
