Hi
I have an ATI Radeon X550 graphics card in my PC and am thinking of replacing my old CRT monitor with an Acer LCD 20".
The Acers resolution is 1680 x 1050. I can't find if my graphics card will support it ?

I've looked in the Catalyst control panel and can choose from resolution options of :-

1024 x 768
1152 x 864
1280 x 768
1280 x 960
1280 x 1024
1920 x 1080

Don't know if that helps ?
Thanks in advance
 
I expect the Acer LCD 20" driver/setup files will add 1680×1050. I have a similar sized monitor running at that rez, and it was added when I installed the monitor driver/*.inf file.

Acer LCD driver/setup files:
Liverpool: Capital of Culture 2008
Anfield: Capital of Football since 1892
