Yesterday i put together a "home theater PC".
x4600 (65 watt)....2gb adata ram.....ASROCK- ALIVENF6G-VSTA MB........saphire 1950pro...ANTEC New Solution Series NSK2480 case.
anyway i installed vista on it and it is running good.......i have a question about resolution?
I have a 42" olevia lcd tv that supports up to 1080i and a native resolution of 1366 x 768.

My question is should i use the option in catalyst control center to run in hdtv at 1080i or the native resolution of 1366 x 768.

This HTPC has been a real fun project.....but i don't want to mess up my tv.

My 37" LCD is a native res of 1366x768, and I use 1360x768 through HD DB15 (commonly refered to as VGA)... no problems at all and since it is the native resolution it is nice and sharp with no scaling.

No it doesnt bother me to have 3 pixels missing on each side lol laying back in my bed form about 10-11' away I wouldnt notice anyway
