No I have just 17" CRT but it is capable to display this resolution. Of course only @60Hz but nvidia don't allow me higher anyway. Better is to use 1600x1200@75 or 1280x1024@85... I just wanted to note that my nvidia have still unrestricted VESA modes.

BTW The DPI I see as an issue of LCDs. When I look at big 19" which are usually 1280x1024 it have VERY big pixels and I need to sit far from monitor to don't see everything such "squared"... Betterr would be 20" with 1600x1200 but still bigger pixels than on CRT. And I don't talk about other disadvantages of LCDs. When OLEDs come to PC monitors it will be initeresting.
