What resolution monitor setting do you browse at ?
 

I am keen to find out the amount of users who browse the net at different screen resolutions.
We are currently in one of those times of change again and I'm sure in the next 2 years maximum, nearly everyone will be browsing with a monitor set at a resolution of 1024 x768 or greater.

So what do you browse the net at ?


(For those that dont know....Right click on your desktop and select properties, then settings, and it should tell you there.)

I can't believe it's more than a year since we last did this topic. ;)

Mine is unchanged ... 1280x1024 at work, 1024x768 at home. :)

It seems like only yesterday since that thread ;)

1024x768 at work (enforced) 800x600 at home (choice). I prefer the 800x600 size.

It will be interesting to see how it's chaned in the last 12 months.

1280 x 1024 for all my home pc's, 1280 x 800 on my widescreen laptop at work. :)

Yeah its been a while. I am still designing sites so they display fine for 800 x 600 but also fine for those higher too, but will eventually be ditching that group.

At home I am running my main PC on 1280 x 1024 and sometimes higher. Looks good on a 19" monitor.

Downstairs however on my other PC, I have a 14" monitor that cant do anything more than 800 x 600. Its sooooo old. I'd have thought it would blow up or break down by now.

1280x960, 'cos anything less than 85Hz drives me mental! if i buy a beter monitor it'd go as high as it can though, subject to the above :)

just changed mine to 1153 X 864 (can a passing mod please change my vote) Thanks.

Anything higher causes problems with my glasses. :scratch:

1280 by 1024 on my main pc at home, 1024 by 768 at work my choice, laptop is on the same at home and most of the other computers I use are. I prefer 1280 x 1024, used it ever since I got my 17" mointor several years ago.

My glasses must be iffy, as we have a 19" monitor (same at work).

My fileserver is 1024x768 - my laptop is 1024x768 - may main pc is 1280x1024 and my wife runs her pc at 800x600

Mine has increased since I now have a TFT monitor. Use 1280x1024 when ever possible.

Re: What resolution monitor setting do you browse at ?
 

At home I use 1600 x 1200 - that's at a 75Hz refresh rate; doesn't seem too much of a problem. At work I use 1024 x 768, but I'd use greater with a better (and larger) monitor.

It amazes me how many people work on spreadsheets and databases at 800 x 600 - you can hardly see any of what you're working on!

It also amazes me how many people at work happily use a monitor set at a 60Hz refresh rate, which I can hardly look at (certainly for any length of time) without getting a headache...

Won't go above 1024x768.

Re: What resolution monitor setting do you browse at ?
 

1024x768, 85Hz or above is optimum here. :)

1024x768 is the work lappy, 1280x1024 for the nice Home PC
