1280x720 not supported?

Me and my brother both use a Vizio 32" LCD HDTV rated at 720p. My PC is just running on nVidia Ion with the Atom N330 with 4GB RAM. My brother has the much more capable rig with C2Q and ATi HD 4770 with 4GB RAM as well. We both are using Win7 Ultimate with the latest graphics drivers for our GPUs and both are running 1280x720 on the desktop.


SC2 is the only modern game in which I cannot pick 1280x720 resolution. I have a bunch of other choices like 1280x768, 1366x768, 1920x1080, etc. My brother is playing it on 1080i (meh) with Ultra settings just fine, though you can see the interlaced effect times.


Anyhow, I am just really surprised that SC2 does not support the 720p standard. However, I could have sworn I've seen other people playing at that resolution. I don't get it!


Anyone else having this issue or have solved it perhaps?

I used to play games on my older 32" Samsung 720p TV. Games that did not support 1280x720p always worked with 1368x768. Its virtually the same thing and your TV should display it perfectly.

Yeah, my TV's "native" resolution is that. I've been using that and it works just fine from what I can tell. I just am confused because both most other games and WoW itself give me the option for 720. Just kind of strange that SC2 doesn't.


Thanks though!

have you tried editing your variables.txt and manually setting it?
