Default Monitor with 2048 x 1526 Max Resolution Question

About a month ago I purchased a View Sonic P95f+ 19" CRT monitor. The max resolution is 2048 x 1526. Right now I have it set at 1600 x 1200 and play 4 tables at once. Is the 2048 x 1526 big enough to fit 6 tables on one screen with no overlap?

I tried to test this out but for some reason when I went into my control panel to change the resolution it only went up to 1920 x 1200. Is there some reason it won't go up to the 2056 x 1526?

You may want to download and install a new video driver. Do a google search for your desired resolution and the word driver. It worked for me on my new monitor.

Thank you,

Well, at 1600x1200 there's just about enough room for 2 poker windows wide. That means that each one is about 800 pixels across, give or take a few pixels. That means you'd need a resolution around 2400Xsomething to fit 3 horizontally with no overlap. I figured that would be a sufficient answer cause if there's horizontal overlap, there's probably vertical overlap too, given the other dimensions. Sorry, but looks like two monitors is the only option for no overlap.

*EDIT* Oh, and get the monitor drivers while you're at it. That can sometimes influence allowable resolutions (and will always affect refresh rate).

I have a P95f+ and I use it at that resolution to 6-table at the Party skins.

I play with only 2 tables from right to left, but 3 tables from top to bottom. Doing it this way, only the chat area is covered by overlap on any tables. You can see all cards, chips, action, and buttons this way.

You can fit up to 9 tables at that resolution, but the side-to-side overlap is worse than the top-bottom overlap, and it gets kind of cluttered (but still playable).

Here's a shot of what 6-tables looks like at 2048x1536.
