    My monitor: Dell E178P

    1. So I have black bars top and bottom when using this resolution, is there any way I can get rid of them? and why are they there?

    2. When I use this resolution I also have major screenlagg whereas other resos are completely fine, can anyone help me with this?

    The native resolution of your monitor is 1280x1024 (5:4), it simply can't scale to 1280x720 (16:9) which is why it causes the black bars.
    It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready.
    I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything.
    There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now.
    And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.

    This might **** up proportions in game though (for example really wide characters or really tall and skinny characters).
    If you do this don't even be surprised when things are looking weird and out of shape.
