Really? Isn't 1024x768 used instead?

When I google it I don't get alot of pertaining results back. From the small amount of info I am reading 960x720 is a non-standard resolution and to use it you need to use a graphic card to set up a "custom resolution" to get it.

Any monitors who's got a native resolution of 960x720?

CRT's don't have a native resolution. They can display any resolution under their max dot pitch.

So yeah, you have to set up 960x720 with a custom resolution tool, like CRU, but it works fine.

I was asking about digital displays, like LCDs or LEDs, sorry I forgot to mention this.

Any monitors that support this resolution without using a custom resolution tool?

I doubt you'll find a 960x720 TFT monitor. Especially one that's worth a crap for games
