Thread Starter 
I hear people talkin about 1080p and 1920x1080 resolutions.

I have a dell ultra shape u2410 running at 1920x1200 at 60hz

Is that HD gaming?

That would be 1200p which is a higher resolution...

1080p stands for 1920 x 1080 progressive scan, of which is redundant for computer monitors as they don't have 1080i.

Yes that is HD gaming. 1920x1200 is slighty higher than 1920x1080, so you are a little bit higher than standard 1080p HD.
Just set your screen resolution to 1920x1200 in games and on the desktop.
