Best monitor - graphics card combo?

I'm buying a new laptop with windows vista, so I want adequate graphics. Is a XGA monitor with a 256MB graphics card ok, or I'm wasting the card's power because of the XGA (and not SXGA)?



Is a 128 graphics card still deliver solid graphics?

no go with the 256 graphics card only because it is so difficult to upgrade laptop hardware. 128 is becoming low end even when it comes to laptops these days. many newer games require 128 minimum, which usually means you have to scale back the settings in the games to get them to run.



the 256MB refers to video memory and will give you more detail on the screen. for instance, instead of seeing characters with block type hands, you will see five fingers. even if you had an old CRT monitor you would notice a difference and would not be "wasting" anything.
