I want to buy a new 1680x1050 PC monitor...however, my PC is an older 2.8Ghz PIV with a 6600GT 128MB graphics card and 1 G memory. I usually play newer games (pre-2007) at 1024x768 on my 17 inch CRT with good results. I don't think I can play games a the native res of the new LCD. If I play at a lower wide-screen (or 4:3) res an I going to have serious "scaler" problems? How "bad" can this look? Does it depend on the brand of monitor? Is it worth it to buy the LCD before I upgrade my system? Thanks.

1 gHz RAM and a card with 128 mb should be plenty to drive a higher resolution LCD monitor but if it can't drive it at native resolution your graphics would look a little fuzzier. If you are going to upgrade your system I would suggest a newer graphics card with 256 mb to get the highest frame rate in your games at the native resolution.
