    What Resolution do you use?

    Was screwing around in the options menu you today and started changing the resoluton size. Got me to think who uses what resolution and why. I have alwaysed used the 640x480 resolution because i think thats the default but now that i look at the 800x600 resolution the picture is sooo much clearer. I guess both have their trade offs. Which do you use?

    There is no tradeoff when using 800x600, except your computer is 10 years old. Therefore I think this poll will show a 20:1 ratio for 800x600 :azn:

    BTW, after I voted, I got forwarded to a thread from 2005 which is a poll about which music I'm listening to while playing Diablo :scratch:

    Krischan, same here. Let's assume forums aren't completely fixed yet. I still remember that thread, I posted in it before.
    Ah well, yesterday polls didn't work at all.

    800*600 here too, reason: Feels better, you see more.

    I don't know what I did, but the last time I opened this thread I got this thread: http://forums.diabloii.net/showthrea...=401125&page=2 but with this poll.

    I totally forgot that 640x480 still existed :grin:

    Ah, I still remember the good old days on my Commodore where you had a giant screen of 320x200 :rolleyes:

    Heh.

    I'd personally go for a 1600x1200 DII res, without increasing vision space.

    It'd make for a much better picture...

    I use 800x600, btw.

    Wow. I saw the poll and just assumed I used the 800x600 resolution. Thought that was the default and wondered why in the world someone would use the 640x480 resolution. Guess I know now, since for all this time I've been running in the lower resolution. :shocked: No apparent reason as my PC is rather new, just pure ignorance. I always thought it was odd how I couldn't see very far as the sides kept getting in the way...

    800x600 windowed... No use filling up the whole screen when you can switch back to the forums so easily...
