Question about resolutions

depends on the games and settings. for alot of stuff, i would suggest no but for alot of games using medium settings and no AA should get you good results.

i amy be wrong though but the 6600 sin't that new and those res's, espcially the 16 x 10 can take alot of power.

still, it all depends on your expectations.

You'll be fine pushing both 1440x900 and 1680x1050 with your 6600.

I've seen the Intel GMA adapters do 1680x1050 on crappy low end systems.

I have found from experience that VGA cards deteriorate quickly - after about 2 or 3 years. Old VGA cards (and laptop VGAs - even new ones) don't give good text with my EIZO S2100 LCD 21" display. That's even though they put out the exact 1600x1200 that my display needs.

good luck

Make sure your display card outputs 1680x1050 . If not, You will have to buy a new one - if you want sharp text. But that's not so expensive.

That model is one of the new ones - uncharted waters. No user reviews. Write us a review when you get it. :- )
