Resolution compatibility between G4 mac and LCD wide screen monitor

[nachiket]

Hi,

I am trying to buy a 20" LCD wide screen and I own a Power Mac G4 (ACP Graphics) (2.8 Power PC G4) machine that runs OS X 10.3.9.

The maximum resolution shown in the system preferences under displays is 1280 x 1024, whereas the new LCD monitor works at 1680 x 1050.

Is there a way of making them compatible? Would it work?

Kindly help me out so that I could decide on my purchase. Thank you.

Buy a newer video card that can support that resolution. That is the limitation you are having.
