What is resolution scaling in BF4?

[Recon97]

Tittle says it all.

[coen113]

It will render a IE a 1440p res on a 1080p screen, so it looks sharper

[lachyman]

It renders the game at a higher res, then scales it down for better looks.

so if I have 1440p monitor? Which scale is the best. I have 2 gtx 980

Try 4K, that should be 150%. And turn off MSAA.

What?

[SkilledRebuilds]

A way for a fast GPU to offer improved image quality on a lower-resolution display. As a means of getting 4K quality on a 2K display.

 

1080p with 200% scaling will effectively be pushing 3840x2160 pixels to your 1080p display, IMAGINE THE SHARPNESS!!!!!

 

Thats what it does.

So how much fps drops would be if I try 4k

[lachyman]

What?

If you put the slider to 150%, it should render 4K image on your 1440p monitor, in other words it enables special type of anti-aliasing, called SSAA, which provides the best visual fidelity. That's why you don't need MSAA. I believe 2 980's can push 4K BF4 at 60FPS no problem.

What card do you have....Not that THAT matters because....... > Whatever your getting at 1080p, Halve it.

 

 

 

 

and thats the 'expected drop' from 1080p>4K (May even be higher or lower by a small fraction)

Why don't you try it out yourself? It's free.

It's 1440p

[Soplias]

How much fps.

Try it and find out

Not the same as experiencing the SHARPNESS that it brings having 4K on a 1080p panel.

So 1440p

Doubled @ 200% = Half your current 1440p performance.

If you were getting 70fps average before, expect 35fps with 200% Res Scaling.

I think I am gonna get 100+fps.with 2 980,i7 5820k

[aduman]

I have a question about this too OP if you don't mind. How does this compare to a native 4K monitor? You know downsampling on a 1080p monitor.

Can I do this on every other game as well? Like Rising Storm which I'm playing right now.

On 4k? Glhf

yes you can with the nvidia driver.

it is a completely different effect, downsampling is basically "natural" anti-aliasing.

Thanks for the info. How do I set it up through the driver?

Yeah that sounds a bit too optimistic.

I mean 1440p not 4k!
