Is it because I'm trying this stunt with a TV and TVs don't have the same flexibility when it comes to mucking around with monitor resolutions?Ģ. I haven't tried using the utility mentioned in the article because it sounds a little scary and in theory, the Nvidia control panel has the same functionality built in.ġ.

I wouldn't mind trying out the 'lower-resolution-no-seriously-you-won't-notice-the-difference' technique outlined in the article, but when I try to follow the suggestion by a comments post (to the article) on how to create a custom resolution using the Nvidia control panel, no matter what I do, I can't get past the test step of the process. Fantastic even.īut it's not a 100% solid fps (probably around 95%). At the moment, I can run native 4k at 50hz v-synced when I'm playing games with all the bells and whistles, and it's awesome. My circumstances: I've got a 1080 ti and a 50" Hisense 4k TV. The benefit being that you get most of the sharpness boost from a rez increase with a substantial reduction in performance cost, thus enabling 60fps/60hz, or a more consistent 60fps. One of the takeaways was that it's possible to create an internal custom resolution of say 3200x1800 then have the GPU upscale that content to 4k. I was reading an article on Eurogamer about 'things PCs can learn from consoles regarding 4k content'.
