    1650x1050 at 120 hz?

    For some reason, I am unable to do this, if I attempt to force it using the vidmode command, it doesn't work whatsoever
    Does anyone have any suggestions on getting this to work?
    E: Also, if I force it to do 1650x1050 at 120hz (-vidmode 1650,1050,120) it will flicker black and white, then exception

    Can your monitor do 120hz? Only some can.

    Maybe it just can't do it at that resolution. You should know that as resolution increases, the maximum refresh rate decreases. Does it work at 1366x768?

    Protip, this is an lcd built for 120hz at 1650x1050
    E: also, vidmode doesn't work at all for me, it gives me the same problem.

    I don't get it. What's with people and playing games at insanely high resolutions? I have a 1280 x 800 screen and I play Halo at 640 x 480 (Because I lag when I use the scope at 800 x 600). What's the point of going above 1024 x 768?

    its less pixely
    and it is the native resolution of my monitor, and thus looks better.

    For recording.

    Protip: It's better to down size video and pictures than it is to upscale them.

    It is alot less pixelated, but I play at 800 x 600 since in a really intense game, you don't pay attention to anything but the motion tracker and your crossfire.

    No, I probably wouldn't. The highest I would ever go would probably be 1024 x 768. This is Halo, it's not like it's going to somehow look much better after that screen size.

    you'll be surprise about the fact that it does get better. Try running a map like church. It looks more amazing as the resolution goes up. I just wished he had done something about the weapons.
