Because I have a 17" monitor and a 19" one, do they take different resolutions?

native res. for a 17" is 1024x768, for a 19" its 1280x1024

That.

Otherways, standard (Non-widescreen) 17 and 19" LCDs usually run at 1280x1024.

And seeing what is the native resolution is easier than spotting the differance between a cow and a sheep, why no just test?

Wrong.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

When I hit settings it says native: 1280x1024 on my 17, but nothing on my 19.

I'm 100% sure that on a 19" the res. is 1280x1024. My 17" Iiyama had a native res. of 1024x768 (it couldn't go higher) but it was one of the first LCD monitors available in the market.

Yeah, when I use the display settings the 17 inch only goes up to 1280x1024 and the 19 inch could only go up to 1600x1200. But that's too big, isn't it?

Any monitor can have any resolution. Geez, there's nothing specifying the exact resolution of an LCD monitor. My 17" is 1280x1024, my 14" is 1024x768, my 15" is 1024x768, the school's 19" are 1280x1024, my mate's 19" is 1440x900, my lappy's 15" is 1280x800.

Just google it, goddammit!

Yeah, 1600x1200 looks a bit duff. I'll stick with 1280x1024 on both.

I don't think a 19" can go that high. 1600x1200 is the native res. for 22" LCD's.

No, it isn't. IT BLOODY ISN'T! There are no exact resolution "rules" for s specified size!

Well then 99% of 19" LCD's have that res. as a native one.

Not that either. A majority, yes, but that's in the 60-70% area. And it'd definitly not 1600x1200 for the majority of 22" ones. That's usually 1920x1080 or 1680x1050.

Usually you'll find a 19" screen in 4:3 is 1280x1024, and a 16:10 is 1440x900. They're are the most common ones but it cna vary.

EDIT: why don't you just check yourself? wouldn't that be so much easier than making a topic here?

Newer made monitors, both 17" and 19" will be 1280x1024. Although it can change from model to model. This is assuming it is 4:3 (or in 1280x1040 case, 5:4) style and not widescreen (16:9/16:10)

actually 1280 x 1024 is a 5:4 ratio, 1280 x 960 is 4:3.  For some reason lcd's use the 5:4 for this res bur 4:3 for others (such as 1024 x 768, 1600 x 1200)

4:3 = 1600x1200 1280x960 ; 1024x768 ; 800x600 ; 640x480 etc.
5:4 = 1280x1024

Those 17" and 19" LCD displays, manufactured for the last several years, in standard aspect ratio, are 1280x1024.  However, that is for standard consumer displays.  As freezer noted, there is no specific requirement for the native resolution of a panel of specific size, that is just what manufacturers have used because of cost and desired resolution of the average home/office consumer.

When I worked for NEC/Mitsubishi they had a line of medical monitors that were 20" displays, but had a resolution of 2048x1536, and only ran in grayscale, but did so with a 1024 shades of gray palette.
