*Note: Support for any specific display mode is dependent on support for that mode by the particular monitor. Exceeding the specifications of a monitor can damage the display. (For this reason, Windows display drivers may exclude some choices from availability for your monitor.)

Resolution modes higher than 1280 x 1024 are for analog (VGA) displays only. Maximum resolution for digital (DVI) monitors is 1280 x 1024 at true color (32-bit).

For fastest application responsiveness and performance, we recommend a maximum resolution of 1280x1024 at 16-bit color for both analog and DVI monitors.
