We have a 16:9 tv 6' away which is what we primarily use for sports and movies.

But sometimes, we'll put a second game on the computer. I just wanted to make sure that the game wouldn't look funky on the 16:10.

Dumb question? 16:10 and sports broadcasts

16:9 will add a border if you view in that native spectrum

Thanks. Any reason to not go 16:10?

Why would you buy a 16:10? Seems either 16:9 or 21:9 is the way to go

When using 16:10, you get more vertical space for web pages, Word, etc.

Oh sorry. TNT games quite a bit and watches movies so he thinks that way
