At what resolution is your max refresh 60hz?

I own a 20" CRT with 60hz @1600x1200.  I usually fly at 1280x1024 which gives 75hz refresh.  It all depends on personal preference.  Certain refresh rates can actually give headaches to some (very rare).  

If your monitor gets the job done, stick with it.
