screen-size

Im building a portfolio website that uses full screen background images slideshow that are cropped to fit using a js plugin. To give the minimum amount of cropping whats the best ratio to make the images ? ie i know 13" macbooks are around 13:7 (when taking into account about 100px for the browser bar) but does that scale up on 15",24",17" displays ?

I know there are charts showing the most common dimensions but they just show a range of sizes and thats categorized by groups rather than actual dimensions
