A couple of graphics questions

Fahrenheit01

So i have a 1060 6GB and i play BF1 on max settings on 80-ish fps on 1080p, pretty good. But i saw a setting called resolution scale. it's set for me to 100% and i'm wondering what it does and if it can make my game look even better while still keeping constant 60fps or more.

 

also is Ansel supported on 1060s and if it is how can i activate it? i want to make a few screenshots in Mass Effect 3 for wallpapers for my pc

It increases the rendering resolution I believe.

Resolution Scaling will improve visuals! Set it to around 125%. Your GPU will be able to handle it just fine!

As Godlygamer said, it increases the rendering resolution, which I believe makes it look better, like super-sampling.

It depends on how much you're willing to sacrifice, particularly for something you may not notice.

LOL, I have the EXACT same GPU in my PC xD

You can go higher. Around 140% should be fine with 55+fps or so....

You will need to experiment.

You have to try for yourself... Go 5% at a time.
