Usually 1080p just means 1920x1080 so you know Also, please do specify the Processor name (Example: Intel Core i5 2400) so everyone knows, you don't have to hide it like if it is a personal information (as it is not a personal information) (View with third-party tool CPU-Z) This is the same thing with the disk (View with Windows Disk Management tool, search with the search tool, or press Win+X and click on Disk Management) And if you do have multiple disks, then please also specify them as well If you do know the RAM Stick manufacturer, then please also specify this (and speed) (View with CPU-Z, but speed is the only thing that you can find in CPU-Z to specify) Also, I'm going to mention another of one of my PCs right now, not just the laptop (Laptop is just for more intense games): Processor: Intel Core i5 2400 RAM: 8GB (650MHz (kinda because it refreshes every time for me)) (Info for speed found in CPU-Z) Video card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 Drives: C, F Volumes: LONDISK SSD 240GB ATA Device E Volume: WDC WD5003ABYZ-011FA0 ATA Device Monitor: 21.5" IPS Display HP 22w (Year: 2017) (Anti-Glare Coating found at DisplaySpecifications.com website's database) (VESA Mount: Yes) Share this post Link to post

But it is usually 16:9, so I was correct about 1920x1080 however it is also on 4:3 in which case it is in fact: 1920x1152 Share this post Link to post

Maybe you should update Wikipedia since everybody else has it wrong and you have it right! Share this post Link to post

But you could also count 1440x1080 as a 4:3 version of 1080p since it is what the 4:3 area of a 1920x1080 monitor/video is. And 1920x1440 is the 4:3 area of a 2560x1440 monitor/video.
