i have a 7950 GT vid card, and I just got a new acer 22", will I be able to push the max res with this card? maybe not like games like cod 4 , but like WoW, and others?
easily. My old monitor was a 22" Acer (1680x1050) on an X1950Pro 512mb PCI-e.
The only issue you might have is cranking AA to the max in some games, or "ultra" quality graphics.
Far Cry for example I could run everything on "high" quality, but when I maxxed the settings in both game and CCC, levels took a couple minutes to load, and frame rates were horrible.
My new monitor does 1920x1080 which is basically one step up from yours, and I can run BioShock on max with a playable framerate, since currently BS doesnt support AA (without hacking/modifying).
What are the rest of your system specs? Those too also play a major role in what you can display.
