Windows 7: GTA IV max settings

I use a 47" hp LD4700 monitor @ 1920x1080.. not exactly optimal for gaming performance, but still a lot of fun to play games with, and very easy on the eyes.

I don't wanna go 1920x1080, need also to work with my monitor, and for coding, programming, 16:9 is awful

imo 16:9 is awesome

all apps i work in now got 2x screen space. all tools now on sides of the screen and center is free, clear workspace. no more hiding-unhiding-moving tool palettes.

and yesterday i was playing Mafia II demo and it was gorgeous in full HD

16:9 is awesome for movies and rts indeed ^^
Look at some game studios photos, often they have 16:10... Robot, Raven, etc...
16:9 is also a way for monitor industry lobbies to produce less surface and make some extra money

16:9 is okay - but I personally prefer 16:10 for a monitor.

16:9 is becoming the norm simply because the panels are cheaper to produce.

I know this thread is old, but i just came across this and wanted to say, that you are right, it will run for 5mins and crash.
