How to upscale resolution

[wangyuji431]

Hello,

I was recently playing Game of Thrones by telltale, and noticed that some details were pixelated. I tried to upscale the resolution, but there was not an option to go beyond 1080p, or native res.

How might I change the resolution of the game beyond the resolution of my monitor? (1440p or 4k)

Thanks!

Monitors can't display an image with higher resolution than what the monitor has. You would need to use DSR to simulate 1440p/4K which would then be downscaled and sent to your monitor as a 1080p image.

It sounds like you're thinking of Dynamic Super Resolution, which you're GPU has to support. Otherwise you can't increase you're resolution beyond the native resolution. Try increase the details if you can.

Thanks for the reply, but don't most games have the option to go beyond the native resolution, like battlefield 4, watchdogs, and gta v?

If you can, could you direct me to such a tool as you described? A DSR?

Adps you can tell, I'm kinda new to resolution and all that jazz.

No, games do not usually have that option. Native resolution is the actual resolution of the monitor, it is physically impossible to display a resolution beyond that.

 

DSR is a setting available to NVIDIA graphics cards, you would activate it in the NVIDIA control panel. It allows the game to render in 1440p or 4K and downscales to 1080p before sending it to the monitor, it's essentially a basic and inefficient form of anti-aliasing. Though, it is the best anti-aliasing available in terms of visual quality (it's the same thing as SSAA) but extremely inefficient.

Ok, that's new.

Are there any third party applications that can do this?

Or are there any programs that can make the program do anti aliasing even though the game cannot?

By I'm thinking of sweetfx. Does it actually work?

Thank you so much.

I don't know sorry , probably better to ask this in the graphics card section.
