It's a question I've been asking myself too, as I always run my 19" Samsung 900NF Diamondtron at 1024x768 @ 120Hz. I just love the 120Hz and, after using it for so long, going down to 85Hz is hard on the eyes. I've used 120Hz with a Yosemite and a Sawtooth AGP, both with the standard Rage graphics card. The 120Hz setting wasn't automatically listed, though it was there when choosing All settings in the Monitors control panel (or holding down Ctrl when using the control strip). After the first time I chose this setting, it was always listed thereafter under Recommended resolutions. So, is it at all possible to damage the monitor with a 120Hz setting? Or wear it out quicker? Does it depend on the monitor? Anyone ever find a 1152 x 870 resolution at higher than 75 Hz? At 100 Hz it'd probably be my ideal resolution on a 19" monitor: 2 full page Word documents open side by side. Chris H -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
