Not me, I run them max out til they burn up.

one thing for most everyone to remember, most LCDs are only rated at 60Hz, regardless of the resolution and setting them any higher can result in damage (unless the specs say otherwise). Compared to CRTs where they can run higher frequencies at lower resolutions (like my 17" CRT can do 60Hz @ 1280x1024 or 75Hz @ 1024x768)

1024x768 on a 19" million pound Chuntex CRT. 5 Years of VGA Glory and going strong!

Thats what I settled on just for viewing sizes. I believe I can run the refresh rate @ 160 at that size but 85 is where it's at.

Nice monitor Parker. I see the rubics cubes there too. My daughter solved her's when she was 5. She pulled all the sticker colors off and put then back where they belonged. Different solution but it made me laugh.

HAHA... nice!
I can solve it in 43 seconds without taking off the stickers or taking apart.
