PC gamers: is your monitor widescreen or 4:3?

[MinisterofDOOM]

The DII patch got me thinking...who actually still uses 4:3 these days? Steam's hardware survey results show 1280x1024 (4:3) to be the most widely used resolution by their users. 21% use it. 1680x1050 is in 2nd place at 18%, and it is a 16:10 wide resolution. 3rd place is another 4:3 resolution: 1024x768 (people can still stand to look at resolution that low?!)

I'm surprised to see so many people still stuck on 4:3 monitors. I wonder if that reflects how rarely people actually buy monitors. You'd have to try pretty hard to find a 4:3 monitor anymore.

So...is your primary PC monitor wide or 4:3?And if it's not wide, why?

Wide...wide monitor wide tv...I'll never go back.

My secondary is a 4:3 19 inch Deidra gave me when we upgraded her to a widescreen

1680x1050....if my GPU can handle it. Though I don't play many PC games...

I know in certian instances when I have to tone down my resolution, I have to take on a 4:3 mode because there is no in game support for lower level widescreen resolutions.

I also know that people don't always have the money to upgrade GPU's or monitors...I mean, my brother is still running a 19" 4:3 monitor from 6 years ago...it's still good, why buy a new one?

I've got dual Apple 20"Cinema Displays 1680x1050. I'm hoping to upgrade to 3x 24" displays or adding a matching 23" cinema display to the current setup.

What's wrong with a good old CRT?

[MinisterofDOOM]

Nothing at all wrong with good ol' CRTs. Picture quality is STILL better than most LCDs. But they're hard to find anymore and take up a lot less space. I can fit two LCDs on my desk or one CRT. Even though the CRT looks better, I'd rather have two monitors.
