My current setup:

PC 2:
- Monitor: Dell 24" IPS panel, 1920x1200
- Graphics: ATI 5870
- Motherboard: ASRock X58 Extreme S-1366
- CPU: IntelŪ Core i7 920 2.66GHz
- Memory: G.SKILL 6GB DDR3

PC 3 (laptop):
- Resolution: 1920x1080

I don't use high res mods on any of them. BG1-2 still looks good, even at 800x600 resolution. The only mod I really need at the moment is EasyTUTU, I simply can't play BG1 without it.

BG looked absolute shit on my TN display or on my laptops native resolution, on my IPS it looks fine in either resolution, but slightly better in native, which is only natural. I might be extremely picky though..
