Hi I am completely illiterate to computers for the most part, so any help would be greatly appreciated since I am having trouble finding anyone locally competent enough in the matter to help me.

I use my computer to keep as many tabs open as I can and I bought this 37" Hitachi Monitor hoping to get some great resolution, so I bought a video card that would not let me over 1280x960 or something like that, and I need a video card that would support something in the range of 2500-3000x1400-2000?. But when I took the video card I bought out and replaced it with the one that came with my tower I can get 1920x1080 and my buddy just accused the video card of being junk... Idk just need to find something that would work well with the monitor size I have.


If I need to add any information for help I will gladly do my best to do so.

Thanks in advance for any help!
