Hi, I currently have 1080p 23,6' monitor and I want to create black bars for my screen and lower the resolution to make it act like 21:9 or 19.5' 900p to test it out for some time because I need to buy a new monitor because this is family PC and I need a monitor for myself. I wanna see how it's to play on a lower size and resolution. I lower the resolution but the image scales acording to it and I looked out to ned but couldnt find it.

There is good deal 19,5' 900p monitor and it has DVI but this 23,6' I have has only VGA. And what do you think about second hand monitors?
Thank you people :)

I don't have an answer but a question.......... does the 1080 have any sort of virtual resolution settings like amd cards do?

Are you mentioning GTX 1080? if so there is and it's called DSR, Dynamic Super Resolution.
