Is 2715 x 1527 2560-1440?

[WeedIsMySin]

Hi, i recently bought the Dell Ultrasharp u2715h 2560 x 1440p 60hz monitor. The problem is: When i start up ANY game the 2560/1440p resolution option is just not there. Instead i get the 2715 x 1527 resolution option.. Did i get ripped off?

 

Here is the monitor : https://azerty.nl/product/dell/795241/ultrasharp-u2715h-led-monitor-27--27-zichtbaar-?gclid=CjwKCAjw8ajcBRBSEiwAsSky_dSaEHB87doBBUNL6iwk8sDCFnMEgTOGTPrc78qZExXuklvcwSVt4BoCRREQAvD_BwE

Why not try?

Contact Dell. Have you tried booting into another OS? Using the iGPU or another dGPU?

It seems like a driver issue rather than a monitor issue.

You have NVIDIA DSR or AMD VSR enabled at 2.0x factor. 2715×1527 will be downscaled to 1080p before being transmitted to the monitor.

 

Are you connected via HDMI? If so, that may be why you are not getting an option for 2560×1440.

I appreciate the help buddy but i know nothing of PC's. The first sentence of your comment is like Chinese to me lol. And yes i am connected via HDMI. I thought that cable was needed to get your monitor to even work lol.

I think that monitor is limited to 2048×1080 over HDMI. You need to use DisplayPort to get 2560×1440. Your monitor should have come with a DisplayPort cable included.

 

NVIDIA DSR is a method of "faking" a higher resolution as a form of anti-aliasing. You can disable it by opening the NVIDIA control panel and unchecking all the "DSR Factors" options here:

I restarted my PC, which actually gave me the option to run games at 2560x1440. Do i still need to use a DisplayPort cable or is my HDMI cable fine?

Sounds like HDMI will work just fine then.
