I can't figure out if I should buy this 20.1 inch widescreen monitor. It would be a perfect fit on my desk BUT I need to figure out if my X1800GTO will support it's native display of 1650x1050. I can't seem to find any info on what my card can support and when I check what resolutions are available now, with "hide modes this monitor can not display" unchecked, I can't find 1650x1050. Does this mean its not available on the card?

try turning on the HDTV modes in Catalyst Control Centre "Monitor Properties -> HDTV Support" to enable the widescreen display modes. check them both, you will find a selection of wide screen display mode that are supported by your card.

there's also a "Force..." setting that you can try. If all else fails... there's also powerstrip, and you can set whatever resolutions you want with that.

I use ATI Tray tools. Catalyst software stinks. I guess I'll have to use it though... Thanks for the replies :D
