uuuh, it varies from game to game.
And 1024X768 is FAR from max.
New games can easily go to 1600X1200

I always go 640*480. The only time i don't is when my brother forces me to play games in it becuase if i dont he will beat me senseless and change it back anyways. I cant stand games unless they run 60 frames. So if 800*600 goes under 60 at any time i will go lower my res. I just cant stand a jumpy game.

I usually run my games at 1280x1024x32 or 1600x1200x32 except for Red Faction. I keep it at the default 640x480 because otherwise the higher resolutions make things worse in the game like the servers list, the HUD, the chat, etc.

And the mouse is a MSoft optical intellimouse WITH a cord. Between the lag between the mouse and reciever, the interference with my 802.11G wireless, and the batteries needing replaced, I can't stand wireless mice. I tried to like it, but it went bye bye.

640 x 480 is about usual, although I did manage to run Max Payne 1 and Half-Life at 800 x 600 without too much mishap

Still, for games like Red Faction and Serious Sam I have to play at 640 x 480 (although some of the golden oldies like Quake, Malice, (conversion for Quake that is truly excellent) and Duke Nukem 3d let you choose really weird resolutions).
Desperately in need of an upgrade!

1024*768 normally. Planetside I play in 1152*something (I forget )

Older games I usually play in whatever it'll let me. 2048*1536 is a very nice res to play in

I'd be surprised if your monitor handles that. It maxes out mine and this is an industry-leading 22inch monitor from NEC.

This said, I prefer 800x600 with 2x FSAA rather than 1024x768 or 1280x1024 without anti-aliasing.
