:> Agreed. Native on my 17" is 60Hz and it's rock steady.

roper drivers for your tft screen loaded).
But fact is that it matters very little in the case of flat panels,
since it's not like the pixels 'turn off' the way phosphors do if your
refresh rate is lower. In fact, I think the panel will use its native
refresh rate if it's hooked up DVI regardless of what you set it to.
Oh, and just by the way, 'refresh rate' isn't really RESOLUTION.
That's that 'm pixels by n pixels' thing. It's usually 1280x1024 for
(non-laptop) panels up to 19" and then goes up to 1600x1200 for larger
panels.
