mine is set to 1680 x 1050 which is aspet ratio 16:9. 4:3 is the ratio for non widescreen, widescreen ratio is 16:9.
found this on wikipedia
Currently, 1024x768 is regarded as an acceptable default. As of July, 2002, 1024×768 Extended Graphics Array was the most common display resolution.[1][2] Many web sites and multimedia products were re-designed from the previous 800×600 format to the higher 1024×768-optimized layout. The validity of this method of gathering statistics is diminishing, however, as LCD monitors have only one native display resolution - the highest available on that particular monitor. When users select a lower resolution, the lower resolution is reported to the statistics gathering website. Nevertheless, the actual number of pixels in front of the user has not changed. Instead, interpolation in the monitor causes the picture to become fuzzy as it attempts to display an image of the wrong resolution by scaling it.
The availability of inexpensive LCD monitors has made the 5:4 aspect ratio resolution of 1280×1024 more popular for desktop usage. Many computer users including CAD users, graphic artists and video game players run their computers at 1600×1200 resolution (UXGA, Ultra-eXtended) or higher if they have the necessary equipment. Other recently available resolutions include oversize aspects like 1400×1050 SXGA+ and wide aspects like 1280×720 WXGA, 1680×1050 WSXGA+, and 1920×1200 WUXGA. The most common computer display resolutions are as follows[3]: A new HD resolution has been released mainly in 30" LCD monitors. The new 2560x1600 is the current max resolution WQXGA.
so having your screen resolution set to 5:4 can be supported by computer monitors. this would be different if you were talking about crt monitors.
(But it flees in the meantime: irretrievable time flies)

yep thats fine, if you get confused between resolutions then all you have to do is take the first number, eg/ 1600, divide ths number by 4, then times the resulting number by 3, this will come up with the correct second number, and julian, that resolution is 16:10 which is standard widescreen monitor resolution, but its not 16:9, if you want to find out what resolutions will fit wide monitors, take the first number again, eg/ 1680, divide this number by 16, then multiply it by 10 if your aspect is 16:10, or by 9 if your aspect is 16:9.
Mine is 16:9, as my resolution is 1920x1080, i have a dell 16:9 monitor 24",
heres a pic of my monitor playing games in 1080p
