Question about 2005FPW

I just bought 2005fpw monitor and I have Ati x850pro agp video card.
My question is, what is the normal resolution on that monitor. Right now I have it on 1680x1050. But on that resolution everything gets so small that I can hardly see. The image is very sharp on this resolution but everything is so small. I also tried on a different resolution so everything gets little bit big but I don't get very clear result. everything doen't look clear and sharp so can someone please help me out and let me know what resolution is recommend? Thanks for help.

    All LCD's have only one true resolution. 1680x1050 is the only resolution that your LCD will display perfectly (as the 2005FPW physically has 1680 pixels across and 1050 pixels down). Every lower resolution you select will not be as sharp as your monitor has to fake those lower resolutions. A CRT does not have this problem and therefore will display all resolutions correctly.

    The trick is you need an LCD whose true resolution displays icons/text/images that are acceptable to you. You need either a 19" 1280x1024 LCD, a 24" 1920x1200 LCD, or a big CRT.

    Thanks you so much for replying. I will just stick to 1680x1050 resolution. I'll get used to it. Thanks.

    Most of the controls don't work like contrast, positioning, phase, sharpness etc when I use my dvi cable.  Is that normal ?  

     

     

    Never mind the manual says those controls don't work with dvi2

    If you would like to see bigger text, you can resize them in your diaplay property.
