XGA+

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

XGA+ stands for eXtended Graphics Array Plus and is a computer display standard. XGA+ is often used on 17 inch desktop CRT monitors. XGA+ is usually understood to refer to the 1152x864 resolution with an aspect ratio of 4:3. As LCD screens are getting increasingly popular, this resolution is decreasing in use, but it is the native resolution of some 15 inch LCD displays.

XGA+ is the next step after XGA (1024x768), although it's not approved by any standard organizations. The next step with an aspect ratio of 4:3 is 1280x960 ("SXGA-") or SXGA+ (1400×1050).
