 Posted: Sun Jan 22, 2012 9:49 pm Post subject: Screen resolution help |
|
|
Hey all,
I'm getting a new laptop to play poker on - it's a 17.3" screen with a resolution of 1600*900 - will this be enough to be able to fit four screens on without overlap? I know places like stars have the size adjustment options but it annoys me when the cards and tables are really squished. Plus if I play on other sites that dont have options like that (not sure if sportsbetonline does or not) then I still want to be able to fit four on
Many thanks for the help |

| 1600x900 should definitely do 4 tables fine. My 15" laptop with 1366x768 does it well enough. |

Well I can fit 4 tables on a netbook, I just have to squint to see what I have.
Depends on how comfortable you are and how good your vision is. But 4 tables on the dimensions you've laid out should be just fine. |

I have a 24" screen running 1600 by 900 I can fit 12 screens from poker stars
i think 1600 x 900 would be wrong for a 17 inch screen |

What dio you mean by "wrong"? I used to have a sony vaio 17" laptop that ran 1600*1200 which worked great - you're just looking at £1800 for a laptop with that quality screen which i cant afford at the mo, I can get a laptop with 1600*900 for £500 which is much more my budget |

1600 x 1200 would sound better to me for a 17 inch screen
my 24 inch screen is 1600 by 900 in a wide screen format but if it correct that is fine just didnt sound correct to me |
