Interesting isnt it? |
Damn, well put.
Yeah I figured that 1080p @ 60 is greater than 2X 720p @ 60 as 720p isn't an accurate half of 1080p.
I think that if you took 1360X768 resolution X 2...that should be as close to 1 X 1080p as humanly possible (while keeping the same aspect ratio. Hence why I think a lot of HDTVs have that as their resolution, over true 720p.
