are u sure guys its all about the Vga connection?

yup, VGA is an analogue connection, VSR requires a digital connection. Its time for a new monitor! you're 285 deserves it! 1366x768 is so 2001!!

well since VSR provides 1080p so i need DVI monitor even 768p or 900p , so can u suggest a good monitor "cheap one" has DVI connector? keep in mind i dont ask for 1080p HD monitor.

VSR doesn't provide 1080p..

VSR down scales a higher resolution (4k) to 1080p to give smoother visuals.

it basically just does a better job than anti aliasing.

buying a new monitor souly for VSR is a really dumb idea.. seriously isn't worth it.

buy yourself a new monitor only if you want one.. if you're happy playing at 1366x768 then stick too it..

however I'd buy a new monitor regardless..

well no I'd buy a games console.. because well your pc is wasted on you lol if you're happy using a monitor from 1998-2004!!

1080p is even low resolution these days and its HD monika should be removed.. 1080p looks terrible unless on a 24" or smaller screen.. even then it's still bad!

their site mentioned it provides various resolutions.

and btw there's no reason to buy 1080p monitor , since i was planing to use VSR, and if i was planing to buy 1080p monitor i wouldn't even think about VSR since it will be 1080p monitor plus its r9 285 gpu, and my pc is not wasted on me, 768p isnt that bad, even 1080p cards sometimes cant provide the decent fps on 768p

also mr rich check this video : 

 

u can see it provides more resolutions.

no it doesn't. it down samples. it takes a 4k image and compresses it to 1080p.

to make the most of vsr you need a gpu capable of playing games at 4k!!

its a gimmick.. it won't boost your resolution, you can't make a screen display more pixels than it has. its impossible.

and plus anything over a 960 or 280x can play games at 60fps. 768p is a very low resolution.. mobile phones have high resolution screens lol..

and your right 1080p monitor would be a waste of money.. as 1080p is also crap!!

you've asked a question with false hope because you want a better graphical experience.

I'm just telling you you won't get a better experience, you'll just waste gpu power on better anti aliasing.

if you want a higher resolution you need to buy a new monitor.

DSR and VSR are gimmicks, they are aimed at people who think they can Polish a turd!

well, and what about a guy cant afford monitor with more than 1080p ?! thats if he even can get the 1080p monitor now? and whats the reason of getting monitor has more than 1080p on r9 285 gpu? this is the real waste of money u know.

the 285 is more than capable of maxing out almost every game at 1080p 60fps.. its wouldnt be a waste of money at all... with your current monitor you may as well have a r7 260.. 

 

if you cant afford a monitor thats fair enough... but thats the only reason youll get VSR and again like i said, if youre only after a new monitor for VSR then youre really wasting your money.

 

you NEED a POWERFUL graphics card to make use of VSR in modern games.. you want somthing like a 390x or better to play modern games using VSR as they have to run the game at 4k... if you think a 285 will struggle with 1080p then image what it will do with 4k ;)

@OP, I'm on VSR right now...

 

I'm using an Acer HDMI->VGA adapter...

 

here's my screencap of my CCC:

d3afa44dc4.pngf9796cf3c3.png

 

 

I'm on 1080p on a 1366x768 monitor (you can confirm by searching the model, shown in the image above)...

 

 

This is roundabout but I set desktop resolution to 1080p first, before going in game... I should not have to set that, but... yeah...

 

try this..

 

Edit: and no, you cannot use VSR if your monitor is connected via DVI-D->VGA.. I tried to do it before...

u said 1080p would be a waste of money and thats why i said more than 1080p with 285 would be a waste of money

I said if you want a 1080p monitor just for vsr then it's a waste of money.

for you getting a 1080p monitor would be like getting an entirly new pc! it's over 50% more pixels..
