Actually, the Device Manager info is correct. Run HWinfo and you’ll find that the monitor panel resolution is 1024×768, whilst the display resolution is 1920 x 1080. These numbers are pixels per inch (ppi), which relate to the physical number of pixels that the display will support. As you say, the display resolution is higher than the physical resolution of the panel. The gap will be filled by interpolation – a bit like those old upscaling DVDs used software to mimic Bluray. That technique dithers pixels (uses an algorithm to work out a statistical ‘average’ between pixels to generate pseudo-pixels) to improve visible rendition. It certainly improves the picture as seen by the human eye, but upscaled DVD is not Bluray, and the Jumper panel is not really Full HD. Thats not a biggy if you’re happy with your display and, given that the spec has been as it is for some time its good at any rate to know that Jumper standards haven’t slipped recently.
