screen resolution - the most common characteristic of any operating system, which is certainly known to every user of personal (and other) computers.This characteristic indicates the size of the image is displayed on the screen of the device relative to the actual size of its projection part.And the image is measured in pixels - dots on the screen that can take almost any color.
But do not think that it depends on this parameter.Yes, it is certainly important, but more important than the technology by means of which was produced by a kinescope.For example, if you look at the size of the Soviet sample TV and compare them with the size of the monitor, it can be assumed that a "unit" has impressive options.However, the screen resolution of the Soviet television is small - only 240 x 320 pixels (vertical, horizontal).Needless to say that such a "monitor" it is simply impossible to work?
Another important aspect of the image display quality on the screen is the ability to video.Somehow, almost all users think that this device is valid only for games, but the screen resolution directly depends on the amount of video memory.Of course, with modern graphics cards that question does not arise, but if you look into the past, it is possible to notice the many cases where the power of this board is not even enough to play the video or view the photos properly.
Speaking of games.In most cases, producers have little interest in gaming software processor parameters.But for what they are being chased - so it's the performance of the graphics card.After all, high-resolution screen makes the game more colorful, and the game world and the characters more detailed and look like real heroes.Therefore, if somebody will decide to play one of the last games, and it is at least "brakes", you should not run to the store and buy a new processor to reduce the cost parameters of the video or simply replace the video card.
This guarantee applies to the manufacturers themselves monitors.Today, a growing number of video and game programs available in the so-called "widescreen" format where the width of the frame is many times greater than its height, and the change is not possible.To bring the screen image to a convenient form typically used a special program to change the screen resolution.It is possible that manufacturers of both products entered into an agreement (or conspired - as you wish), and raised its sales material so that's not an honest way.
There is such a thing as the screen resolution, optimal for the computer.As it turned out, not every picture size is comfortable to the eye.For example, if the old monitors was the optimal resolution of 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600, then on modern devices can immediately notice a complete lack of comfort.
Usually modern operating systems (starting with Windows XP) themselves set the optimal screen resolution, but if that does not happen, this procedure can be very easy to implement.It is enough to click the right mouse button on a free from the labels on the desktop, choose Properties, tab "Settings" and move the slider to the desired value.In Windows 7, this situation is simple: press the right mouse button to choose the same menu item.
users operating system Ubuntu screen resolution will not cause any trouble: should be fine and default values.All graphics built in a way that looks optimally on any hardware.
