Would 1920x1200 be problomatic?

I'm going to get a Samsung 1080p 24'' HDTV and I noticed the resolution is 1920x1200 while all the other TV's I looked at had a resolution of 1920x1080. Would the bigger resolution on the Samsung cause problems such as stretching out the image or FPS problems?



Edit: I plan on using this for watching TV and playing games.Would 1920x1200 be problomatic?
None that I am aware of.



The standard for 720P used to be 1280x720 but has since increased as well...Would 1920x1200 be problomatic?

No it hasnt, 720p was and always will be 1280 x 720. Your talking about 768p.

no it hasn't
So would playing 360 in 1080p with 1920x1200 resolution cause any problems such as the black lines or stretching it out?

The Monitor/TV needs 1:1 pixel mapping, this will but small black borders on the top and bottom and it will not stretch the image, otherwise your image would get stretched as 1920 x 1200 is 16:10 and not 16:9.
damn

Yeah, its a 16:10 screen, so to watch/play 16:9 screen without stretching, it adds small black borders at top and bottom of screen, but its not really noticable. Its a great monitor/TV.

I was thinking of getting some no name brand for the same price but bigger, would you say this is the best monitor for the price?

If the monitor does not have 1:1 pixel mapping, then yes the picture would be strecthed as you are outputting at the monitors native resolution of 1920 x 1200 which is 16:10, not 16:9. It just so happens the the monitor he is talking about has this and adds black bars at the top and bottom to stop the stretch.
I looked at the specs more closely and under ''Key Features'' I noticed this:
  • 1080p High-definition resolution
  • 16:9 wide LCD aspect ratio
  • Built-in speakers
  • DVI and VGA
  • HDMI
  • 5Ms Response Time
It says its 16:9 not 16:10. Now correct me if I'm wrong but if its 16:9 then doesn't that mean that it won't be stretched out and there'll be no need for the black bars?

Its wrong. The native resolution of the screen is 1920 x 1200 which is 16:10. It has 1:1 pixel mapping which will add the bars and stop the stretch, hence the image being 16:9. But the actual screen is 16:10.

The monitor he is talking about is actually 16:10 and not 16:9 so he will get black bars.
