1440P Ultra Wide Monitor Question

[makadee]

Hi everyone,

 

I just finally got my hands on a RTX 3080! I have a monitor at the moment that is G-Sync and has a resolution of 3440x1440.

 

I went into the Nvidia control panel and turned on the DSR settings to be able to set my games to 5K, which is the equivalence of a 4K ultra wide.

 

But when I do this i notice the frames drop from lets say in a game from 150 FPS to like 90-100 FPS. 

 

The issue I am facing is I dont see a difference in the quality. Like I dont know if im tripping and dont notice it or I am doing something wrong here. 

 

Can someone tell me if 1440P is even able to be scaled up to 5K resolution? In terms of the frames they do drop but thats fine with me because ill still get high FPS.

 

 

PS: this is something I found online, anyone know much about this?

It's old News (well I consider it so because I found a solution) to that 1440p on 1080p or 4K panels.. IF YOU tune your PC to do so with Display scaling on the GPU (set in NVCP), not Display. (Default)

iE - GPU SCALING (Nvidia CP) keeps it from being "interpolated mess" as it used to, which is what he is referring to.
My 1440p is SHaRP AF, on my 1080p/DSR4K display. (I use 3% Filtering or less as I leave my Desktop in DSR4K mode but I have a Large display)

The 33% filtering however could be why you don't see much change...

Sorry what do you mean by the 33% filtering. So what setting do i need to change in order to see a difference?

Right under the DSR options there is a Filtering Slider.
It's a guassan blur filter to reduce jaggies on non-GPU display scaling panels.

Reduce it and more details should be apparent (slightly)

Yeah I changed my DRS Filter from 33% to 0% and there was a bit off a difference but not huge. 

 

The picture you sent though, I went and changed all my settings to like yours. But I still dont notice much of a difference, other than the FPS dropping of course...

Maybe it sn't enough extra pixels to really crisp it up..

The 1.2x specifically I mean.
