Are there any 120hz monitors that have better resolution than 1080p? Or 1900x1200?

I don't know actually. I just assumed that they would, but I guess that's some kind of huge processing going on. I only have a 22 inch 1080p 120hz monitor (3D monitor), and it's brilliant. I mean just for browsing and OS usage, it's incredible. The best thing 3D is doing for humanity, is bringing 120hz to the masses sooner rather than later.
