My current rig is a p4 + FX5200 card. Will everything work properly if I get a Samsung 2443BW or 2493HM? I know I won't be able to play games, but will it work at all? I'm getting this screen for my i7 upgrade, screen this month, i7 next month.
 
it should work fine, but might slow down in graphically intensive games like solitaire.
 
That's ok, I don't plan on playing any games until my i7 arrives. The card is an AGP card, so I thought it would cause problems with this high-res screen.
 
you should be fine that card is still probably better than some of the on board video boards that I have used at 1920x1200.

I would try and run some games on it just for fun. Maybe play some old school Warcraft 2.
 
Desktop usage shouldnt be an issue, but I believe 3D gaming would be WAY too much with native resolution.
