1280x1024 is less resolution than 1080p, thus render faster, also it is the "recommended" resolution of many high end CRTs, some that can run that resolution at 160 fps ( or more even... ), with virtually zero latency, thus essentially allowing people with fast enough reflexes to use their full potential.
- hengheng 10y agoAFAIK no CRT was ever manufactured in a 5:4 format. To avoid distortion you'd have to use 1280x960, which noone ever did. Also there are plenty of full HD displays with 120Hz+ now ...
