Sal Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 As the title states, is anyone using a GMA950 integrated graphics card with a 20" widescreen (1680x1050) resolution? I'm starting to order components and I want to be sure the GMA950 will be able to display the correct resolution on a 20" monitor. I don't plan on playing much games, just some casual photo-shopping (probably in xp until the universal cs is out for osx), and web browsing. I plan on using the 10.4.6 Jas release. Thanks for your time. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/18539-does-the-gma950-support-1680x1050-widescreen/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanschien Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 GMA 950 works beautifuly on 10.4.6 @ 1680x1050x32. Not sure about DVI w/ Add2 card though. My computer can sleep, and resume.

Sal Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 hanschien, can you post your specs? I'm also hoping for sleep/resume to work on my desktop. I'm going to purchase a AOpen i945Ga-PLF mainboard from newegg.

cardinal Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I had 10.4.6 on ASUS P5VLD2-VM (GMA 950) with ASUS ADD2 card, powering a 24" Dell LCD at native resolution. It worked flawlessly as far as graphics go. Monitor would go to power saving mode. However, my computer would not wake up from sleep. I had one problem after installing ADD2 card... the computer suddenly decided to ask for login information on every boot. This can be fixed by using 10.4.5 IOsomething or other, you'll have to search the board.
