Many tvs only accept 1080p, 720p or 480p over HDMI and when the graphics card sees this it will switch to that resolution.
These same tv’s will be much more flexible via their PC input and often allow many resolutions. Getting pixel perfect on your 1366×768 panel may only be possible via VGA.
Even if your tv is only a “720p” 1366×768 panel, it will still accept 1080p input signal. It will just scale it down to the actual output resolution, 1366×768, of your tv. All plasmas and lcds are fixed resolution output, so they have to have internal scalers to handle the variety of possible inputs out there.
