resolution

I keep seeing people not understand why CPUs become less important as resolution increases, so I want to explain why. So, anything more than 1080p and you are becoming much more GPU-dependent than CPU. At 1080p, the GPU is less dependent on rendering the pixels, as you have FAR fewer pixels in...

Hi All, I have an old GPU Sapphire Vapor-X AMD Radeon R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 I am looking to buy a 4k monitor. Do I need to upgrade my GPU to support it? Currently I have 4 monitors plugged in: 3 in HD resolution and 1 monitor in QHD 2560x1440 Just so you know I don't use it for gaming, only for...

Hello, I'm looking into buying a second monitor and installing it along side with my AOC 23.8'' 24g2w1g4 on a dual wall mount. Since i already have a good gaming monitor, i'll use this new monitor mainly for programming, 3D modelling, Digital Art (Photoshop, substance painter) and Web Design...

I honestly regret buying a 1440p monitor since I only play fps comp games, Im getting lower fps than I used to with my old pc on 1080p. Question: Would lowering my res to 1080p on nvidia control panel help getting more fps? Or is there a better way to do it maybe with DSR factors, I just want...

I upgraded from a 1080Ti to a 4070Ti this past week. No complaints but my ultrawide display hasn't been working properly ever since. I know that I can make a custom res, but that isn't solving my problem exactly. It is 1080p but stretched. I will provide what I have done so far. The monitor...

I posted this in the GPU forum because I think I have narrowed it down to a GPU problem. I rebuilt my pc with some new parts (most notably a new RTX 3060) yesterday, and last night it worked perfectly fine, everything as expected. I went through the process of updating windows and my NVIDIA...

Changing resolution makes the game smaller which I don't want. I wan't the game to cover the entire screen but run in 720p instead of 1080p for better performance.

I currently got upgraded from 1070 ti to RTX 4080 for my build which perfectly working, this is my current Build and I am considering 4k in case I want to play some games in 4k and 144hz refresh rate in case I want more fps and I feel 144hz is perfect refresh for that, one thing my friend told...

so i have a 1440p monitor and when changing resolution down to 1080p it looks really bad and blurry at full screen but my question is would that be the same for 1440p laptop when changing resolution down to 1080 or would it just look like having a 1080p laptop with no blur

Hi all, Have just noticed that my desktop no longer fits my monitor. I have a black bar going up the left, right and top of my screen. Have tried to resize it to fit the screen but Nvidia control panel says that it’s running at 1440p and therefore won’t allow me to. Bottom of the screen lines...

Hey everyone I come to you on the eve of the Nvidia 4000 series launch with a question about performance vs screen resolution. I know from the reviews today that the 4090 becomes less bottlenecked by cpu performance at higher resolutions such as 4K. At 1440p the processor that I am most...

So i have had this 34" Ultrawide monitor (3440 x 1440 for a while now and it works great! I however decided to upgrade my setup and get a secondary monitor. This time a 27" 4K monitor (because i do a bit of coding on the side). Prior to buying the new monitor i watched a video with a guy...

Hi, Fast and probably stupid question for a lot of the readers. Does a 1080p resolution from a 2k panel(full screen) look better then a 1080p from a 1080p panel? The inch are the same(arround 30 for example). For make you understand better pov: you are playing a competitive game in full screen...

Hello! I have the "Samsung G7 Odyssey" Gaming Monitor "2560x1440" @240hz Playing on the native resolution is completely fine and works a charm, however I do enjoy playing the more competitive games at a lower resolution such as "1280x960" but this gives me problems, on other monitors/previous...

I have a potato laptop with Intel UHD 620 graphics and a 940MX GPU. So if you know, you don't have NVIDIA scaling options in the NVIDIA control panel when you are not using any external monitor. It shows only a limited options. So I can control scaling using Intel GPU settings only. I tried...

Hello everyone. So last week I tried changing resolutions on my Nvidia graphics card through their app but it seems it messed up something with my windows since im getting these weird letters and the icons and letters that are supposed to be round have now square edges on them and its really...

Hey People, could you please help answer a question of mine? I own a 1440p lg 27gl850 monitor with 4K downscaled to 1440p support, and i own a ps5. I upgraded uncharted to the ps5 version and i am questioning if there really is a real difference between running the game in fidelity mode or...

He has a 1600x900p monitor, and claims hes "overclocked" it to 1080p, his computer thinks its a 1080p screen and hes CLAIMING it looks the same as his 1080p monitor. Im trying to talk him out of this non-sense but he wont listen so ive went to here to try and set him straight so please tell...

When changing resolution in full screen, the game doesn't adjust the system's resolution to match the game's so it doesn't fill the screen. Does anyone know how to fix this without changing the resolution manually? Specs: MSI Gaming Z 1070 core clock i7 6800k - no OC Corsair Vengeance LPX...

This problem started a few months ago. My GPU is an RTX 2080 XC ULTRA, and my monitor is a BenQ XL2420TE (1080p, 144hz). A few months ago, my computer crashed, where the monitor turned off, but it sounded like the audio was still going (through the headphones), and it wouldn’t respond to me...

I need to get a budget-ish laptop for doing web design. I'm used to 2k desktop monitors and could really use a 2k on laptop for the extra workspace, but they don't fit into the 'budget' category. I was looking at something like ASUS VivoBook M513UA which is Full HD. It's a Ryzen laptop, so I...

Hello, I recently came across "Linus Tech Tips" video in which they used a 16:9 monitor and somehow created a widescreen effect 21:9 by adding black bars top and bottom. Is that possible to do on any 16:9 monitor somewhere in settings (system or game) and how to do it? I understand the screen...

I'm going into CS for university and wanted to set up dual monitors, but I'm having trouble finding the right pair. Some stuff to let you guys know: I'm planning on playing games that range from intensive games like Warzone to light games like Valorant. Also, with the expensive GPU's because of...

Hello guys, here I have a strange request. Here is the condition: I get a 4K version of Lenovo Yoga 720-15lkb with 4k UHD screen for 3 months. Originally I was planning to use it for light gaming, but 4k UHD resolution does many problems on my (not well considered) plan. Now the screen shows a...

Hello to everyone, I hope you are all well, free from any strong consequence from this pandemics situation. I have a second screen which is a SHARP TV MODEL LC-60UQ17U, Which if I understand correctly withstands 4K resolution @120-240Hz, as I can see this on the menu: Connected to it, I...

I just found out that playing in a res lower than native highly affects graphics ,so when I tried to change it to native ,it didn't show up on win10 settings ,and when I try to I install driver of monitor(dell e1914h)it says monitor connected is "AGO plug and play"and drivers found"e1914h"...

Hi. Is there a way to exceed my old's lcd screen 1280 x 1025 max resolution, on windows 10 - 64 bit? Nothing extreme but I would like to go for a 4:3 1440 x 1080 (or around that area) for a particular program that needs it to work properly. I know more modern screens are cheap and mine is...

It's a weird question, I know. I have a Dell IN2020M monitor and ever since I bought it I had connected it to my GPU using VGA through a VGA-to-DVI converter that I had gotten with an XFX GPU. The monitor's specs show that its maximum resolution is 1600x900. Now, yesterday I bought a VGA-to-HDMI...

After some research on monitors I still need help coming to a conclusion (or choice) on purchasing a 27 or 32" monitor, both are 1440. Pixel density is greater on a 27 vs. a 32", and I want to know if a 27 would be easier for text or the larger would partly be the same regarding noticing the...

Hi, Im currently using a 1366x768 monitor usually playing most games on ultra or custom high presets achieving 60fps ( 60hz ) on AAA games. I was thinking of buying a new monitor and got worried about the performance loss and FPS penalty of using a higher resolution monitor. I know PPI is...

-I have a 4k native tv I use as my monitor. -I have windows set to 1440p res so I can use 120hz refresh rate. Question: If I set a game to 4k then am I actually seeing 4k resolution or does the Win10 display res override that?

Most people do gaming at 1080p, also Steam surveys confirms that 65% of gamers do it on 1080p. But marketing says 1080p is not mainstream anymore because nowdays there's 1440p and 4K as the new standard. Even new hardware, new games (especially AAA), benchmarks, and reviews focuses a little bit...
