These are preassigned resolutions; your computer may support other resolutions within this range. See the manual that came with your computer or video card to determine which resolutions are supported.

If you don’t use a preassigned resolution, you’ll need to adjust screen geometry to match the new resolution. For more information, see “Making Adjustments to the Picture” in Chapter 3.
