Video card/monitor compatibility

I currently have a Radeon X1300/X1550 Series video card and cannot upgrade because my Dell Inspirion is the "narrow case" model. I am currently running a Dell 19" monitor. Will this video card support an upgrade to a 24" or 25" monitor? I primarily use the computer for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Thanks, Jeff
 
Read the specs for the monitor, and the specs for the video graphics card. Other than the specifications there is no reason why it will not work...
 
I do not know of a dedicated video card on the market which does not support a resolution of 1920x1200. Only monitors past 27" generally use 2560x1600, so a 24" or 25" panel is almost guaranteed to run at either 1920x1200 or 1920x1080. So yes, your card should support a monitor that size.
 
Yes, running at higher resolutions is more demanding on the video card and will result in reduced performance.
