Best non native resolution for streaming?

BaidDSB · January 2

Got my New Tab A11. Its resolution is 1340 x 800. About 5:3. Runs Helio G99, 8GB Ram.

Now, on Diana/Artemis, i set a custom resolution on the same Aspect Ratio, 2000x1200.

its what also the games on the PC detect and run on as well.

Question is, am i getting any benefits? I feel like it does look better... but am i really getting that resolution on a display that only supports 1340 x 800?

On the other hand.. What if i go 200% Native res? So 2680x1600 will be rendered on PC... but it will stream on 1340 x 800.

Effectively im trying to do DSR. I am just wondering which would look better. a Non native res thats not a multiplier of native, or a direct native... something that works like 4k Video on a 080p screen.

It shouldn't look better on a higher resolution than your screen can display, but my suspicion is that you're losing less data simply because you can lose like half of your pixels without noticing anything. You most certainly aren't getting higher than native resolution, but if you can blindly tell a difference chances are it's not just the placebo effect.

im basically employing the principle of DSR..
