At what screen resolution will you run Half-Life 2 in?

[joule]

1024x768 for me, in 32 bit Color quality.

 

[bryanf445]

1024x768 no aa or af most likely

 

[miked4o7]

I prefer most fps at 1024

 

[x2501x]

1024x768 (2xaa if I can get away with it)

 

[GiaOmerta]

1024x768

16 bit Color for good measure.

 

[giant384]

it depends some games run slow with high resoulution but im going fo 800x600

 

[Viperidae]

1024x768, 32 bit, trilinear filtering, no AA (too blurry).

 

[SkilledNewbie]

1600x1200 since it's my LCD's native resolution.

[Arrow]

1024x768 hopefully with max AA/AF

 

[Chris D]

I prefer 1024x768

 

[T.H.C.138]

as high as possible...

minimum:1024x768

maximum:whatever my OC'd GT can pull off

my monitor maxes out at 2048x1536..

ran CS:S at that with everything all the way up except AAx2 AF x4(on my own server) and got like 20-30 fps...

but when I shot...well it dropped considerably,but just moving around didn't make it too much worse

Hopefully, I'll see if I can run it at 1600x1200 and sacrifiice a few graphical options that I don't give a damn about (32-bit colour, Trilinear, etc....).

 

[Acert93]

I will start at 1280x1024 with 4xAA and 8xAF. I will tweak up and down from there... hopefully I can run 1600x1200 with AA/AF on my 21" monitor

 

[Eg.]

1280x1024 with max all

 

[taku]

800x600 on medium settings, as it's the best quality I can get and still maintain 30fps (which I can tolerate).

 

[frusion]

1600x1200 all high maximum everything of course!

 

[YellowPeril]

none of those. 1280x800, 32 bit color

 

[mxlegend99]

1024x768 here.... its all i can play a FPS at, anything higher feels wrong.... will have 6xAA, 16xAF and everything else maxed though... with those settings i got 71.22fps in CS:S VST, on a 9800pro.... im hoping that its indicative of how my PC will run HL2 Else no AA/AF... and i deal with however it runs.

 

[Malfunction]

Until I get my new monitor, I'll be playing all my games, like I always have, at 1024x768, but once I do, I might, depending on the image quality vs. performance hit ratio, bump it up higher.

 

[solideliquid]

1600x1200 AAx2AFx4 with all settings at max.

At least that works for me on CS:S..hopefully it will work with HL2.

 

[psalm]

1680x1050

Widescreen, baby

 

[-Yo-]

stress test : 110 fps @ 1600x1200 FSAA 2x aniso 4x

64 3200+ @ 3380 Mhz
6800GT @ 420 Mhz

 

[Ownzed]

1024x768, 2x aa and 2x af.

 

[Sanius]

1024x768, 32-bit color. all settings jacked up (no aa/af though)

 

[Rando]

1024x768

 

[bam23]

1024x768

 

[Snowknight26]

Bah, my monitor doesnt support anything higher than 1024x768, so I guess Ill have to stick with that.

 

[shapeshifter]

1024x768 32-bit colour
all settings maxed.

16x AF,
And depending on what kind of hit I get with AA, 2x or 4x.

Id love to go higher, and could, but Id have to push the AA or AF down a notch which I don't like.

 

[sublidieminal]

1280 x 1024, simply because that's how the game is meant to be played in my book

 

[Moejoe]

800X600, i was experimenting with source and found that this boosted me 10-15 fps over 1024, definately worth the sacrifice...

also, bare minimum EVERYTHING but texture quality, which will be maxed. wish i could have cool shiny effects and bumpmapping, but my poor 'ol 9100 can't handle it.

 

[slicktick]

1024 x 768, I hope, its my laptops native resolution, if it doesnt run well enough, I will run it at 800 x 600. So lets cross our fingers!

 

[Prince of China]

I wonder what kind of computer you would require to run Half-Life 2 at 1792x1344, 32-bit colour, Full detail on everything such as textures, characters and environment, have Anistropic filtering to the max, Anit-Aliasing to the max and still get 60+ framerates.

You can do that already, except for the 60+ fps

Mabye when the next gen cards hit.

 

[A2597]

1280x960 (Proper 4:3 aspect ratio) 32bit, max AF, some AA (2 or 4x AA)
max quality otherwise. all game options maxed.

any modern computer, with an X800XTPE, or a 6800 Ultra should be able to do that.

 

[r5a]

1600x1200 32bit - Full AA/AF - Full to High Details.

 

[john41]

lowest possible, i just meet the min specs

 

[LeXo5]

1152 by 864 pixels if i can... otherwise 1024 .. always 32bit

 

[Asuka]

1024 by 768 pixels

Everything on max.

 

[disruptioN_]

1024 with everything on.
