Monitor is 2k But 4K ingame??

[Fictionvl]

Hello LTT,

 

I have a problem with my monitor, when I use it regularly it runs at 2K 144hz

but in games, for somereason running the game in windowed broderless runs them at 4K, and the scaling set to 50% to be at 2K, and its blurry.

 

I have an AMD 5700 XT GPU which i don't know if it has anything to do with this issue.

Go in control center / driver settings or whatever is called these days (adrenaline whatever) and check and see if there aren't some custom options configured for that game. Check if there's some super resolution option enabled or forced resolution or supersampling... basically anything outside the normal.

Is the game not allowing you to manually set the 1080p resolution, if not from menu from some configuration file?

did you check steam forums or origin or whoever owns the game for some bug fixes or known bugs / workarounds for this game?

in game, I can set it to 1440p but the scaling is always on and if I go below 100% (4K) it becomes super blurry. and its for all games. not just a particular game

 

and I have set everything to default in the Radeon Software, GPU scaling is off, this only happened when I got my second monitor which is a BenQ EX2780Q

In the past I had some games do that scaling thing when I had that 125% text magnification in Display Properties ... don't know exactly the name in Windows 10 as I'm currently typing on a Windows 7 laptop

Basically setting something other than 100% for text scaling would make the game do that magnification crap.

You're 100% right, I had 125% on windows scalign cause everything was so small
