LCD for gaming??

An LCD with 3 native resolutions. No wonder it cost so much

Kidding

As Dazz pointed out, the native resolution will be its highest supported resolution. It is unlikely to be 1920x540, as it apparently supports 1280x1024 (which has around twice as many vertical pixels). And it is unlikely to be 1280x1024, as it apparently supports 1920x540 (which has one-and-a-half times as many horizontal pixels!).

In LCDs, the native resolution is the actual number of pixels that make up the screen. The screen cannot support any higher resolution, as it physically does not have the pixels to support them. It supports lower resolutions by divvying the resolution to fit its number of pixels (with varying degrees of success).

If you can get your screen to display 1920x540 and 1280x1024, I'd recommend trying 1920x1024 .

Before I bought LCD TV, many forums recommended to use Powerstrip incase you cant get all resolutions you need on HDTV, Widescreen TV and LCD TV if the driver cant give. When I used LCD TV for first time with Forceware 53.03, it didnt showed all resolutions and I installed Powerstrip. I was tried to figured out how Powerstrip worked, it all confused, I prefered Powerstrip to do all works automatic and never restarts but I dont understand why it need to test suitable monitors drivers and asked to restart and to ask Windows to accept the monitor driver, it is useless and a waste of time, it not working at all reading Powerstrip guides at forums with adjustment Vertical and Hortizional scanning ranges. Well Powerstrip detected my LCD TV and told it supported maximum resolution of 1920x1440 but Forceware driver cant give that, I still not understand why Powerstrip wont do the job to give me 1920x1440.

I dont know if here a software alternative to Powerstrip that do all job itself automatic.
