I was thinking of getting a second monitor for a snazzy dual screen set up but I think I've read somewhere that they should be on the same resolution?  My current monitor is a 24" Samsung with a 1900x1200 resolution but all the ones I've seen so far seem to be 1920 x 1080.  Will this be ok or do I really need to get a 1900x1200 one?

Thank you in advance, have a Happy Christmas.

Windows copes perfectly well with different resolutions. I've got a 1600x1200 and 1920x1080 at work. That said, if you're using some kind of poker table manager for multitabling, I wouldn't have a clue whether they work or not.

Windows can cope with the different resolutions, tho atm I'm using 2 identical 27" LGs so they're on the same resolution (1920x1080)

Quick question,

Got my 2nd screen which I'm loving, I can't believe how much difference it makes, it's great, but.... When my screensaver kicks in, it only comes on one screen and the other goes blank (Black)  Is it possible to have the screen saver on both screens?
