1920x1200 with either AAx4 or AAx16, and when playing COD4 I use AAx32xQ. AFx16 is on in any weather... ALWAYS.can't believe there is actually a option to disable it ore even lower it to 8x r below...

OK i play at 1680x1050.. But i was wondering..

What does resolution matter when it comes to games? As long as the aspect ratio is correct, wont it look exactly the same at say, 14x9 as it would 16x10 ?

Ok so screenshots will be smaller.. But the gaming experience itself will still be the same.. right?


Or am i totally missing something?
