Not a very pretty resolution.
I ussualy stick to the higher, more common, standard, they display better (more proportionaly, aesthetically, and better for games).
IIRC and might be wrong (factors of 1.25, 1+1/3 & 1.6):
320 x 256 / 240 / 200
400 x 320 / 300 / 250
640 x 512 / 480 / 400
720 x 576 / 540 / 450
800 x 640 / 600 / 500
1024 x 819 / 768 / 640
1280 x 1024 / 960 / 800
1600 x 1280 / 1200 / 1000
2000 x 1600 / 1500 / 1250

The common ones are 640x480 (not really common anymore), 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024, and 1600x1200.

I use 1024x768. Used to use 800x600, but I use this resolution in Continuum only.

Why would you use a lower resolution for Cont? It only impairs your gameplay.

Get a better PC.

No, just a better video card. I can't imagine many modern cards would lag on 1027x768, though. It's not one of those onboard steal-system-RAM types, is it?

Even those shouldn't lag with Continuum.

More likely it's just old.

When I was a tech at best buy, we had a lot of problems with alienware machines. Maybe theyve improved over the 3-5 years, but I would still steer clear of them.

Eh? What were the main problems with Alienware?

That site has the resolution for the monitor at 2560 x 1600, which even beats my 1920x1200 that gets me booted in a couple zones before I finish the map download.

Nothing in specific newb, just lots of assorted problems. Almost every one where the customer had the machine shipped to the store we ended up having to fix or do something with.

The one I remember the most was a shipping issue: The case got damaged during shipping, so we had to do a case-transfer in the store (which sucked). The power supply then died like 3 hours after everything was in the new case, and the cute plastic things they put on the video card was broken and the guy demanded a new one.

There was also one where it didnt have the video card in it, so we had to put one in off the shelf.

Lots of shit like that.
