It will most likely work fine. Resolutions are usually controlled by the monitor. BTW if you're a gamer, I'd find out if the games you play support widescreen or not. I have a 20" widescreen LCD and it's pretty annoying not being able to play the games I enjoy on it.

There is a chance that it won't work fine, but according to a quick google search other people are using massive 22" widescreen LCDs on your chipset. You might have to install some monitor drivers to make it work.

EDIT**

The Intel site does say that the max resolution is 1600x1200, but it's also limiting that to plug n play monitors that don't require drivers. It explains below that higher resolutions *may* work with monitor drivers installed. It's pretty much a crapshoot.
