Your screen display with stretch, and it wont look pretty. You will need a graphics card that can drives the widescreen to get the full benefits.

If you put a full frame picture on a widescreen monitor the monitor will scale the image to fill the screen and you will see two effects:
First, everything will be stretched wide.
Second, everything will be slightly fuzzy as you will not be at the native resolution of the panel and the panel has to scale the image up to more than one LCD pixel to each desktop pixel.
Intel is pretty good at keeping it's drivers current. Download the latest drivers and you will probably find widescreen modes supported.
Also the plug and play information in the monitor provides all the information needed by the video card to produce the native widescreen resolution. If Intel has implemented plug-n-play properly then when you boot up with the widescreen monitor attached the panel native resolution will be available.

Your system will overheat and go on fire.
