Shpankey, good find, but doesn't seem to work for me. Do you use a default profile or did you create a new one? I created a new one which created my profile in My Documents folder. I tried copying VideoDefault.con file into there and changing the values, but still no luck.

I can't even begin to say how disappointed I am that common widescreen TV resolutions aren't supported.

I am running that same monitor on 6800 card. So far I had no luck getting it to work. I did, however, had BF1942 running at 1680x1050

PS: You might want to wait for a deal from dell. I got two of my monitors for $384 shipped.

Or I just saw this deal:

20% on Dell 2405FPW (24â€Â

That's $648 US, that's very high for that monitor. I'd wait for a sale. Dell has them all the time. They just ended one 2 days ago which dropped the price of it to $420. But...do whatever you like :)
