This setting is usually a percentage value, and it will render the game's graphics at a lower resolution while keeping other parts of the UI at a super sharp 4K.įor example, you would set your game's resolution to 3,840 by 2,160, then change resolution scaling to 70%, which will give you the performance of running the game at 2,688 by 1,512 with sharper mini-maps and HUD elements.
Ideally, it will have a setting called Resolution Scaling (sometimes called Render Scale or something similar). Launch a game and enter its video or display settings. This will ensure your PC is outputting a 4K signal.
Scroll down to Display Resolution and set it to 3,840 by 2,160 (it should say "Recommended" in parentheses next to it). You will get a better overall picture than just running your PC at 1080p, but with similar performance.įirst, right-click the Windows desktop and choose Display Settings. Instead, you'll want your PC to output a 4K resolution at all times, after which we can use a few tricks to scale your games up from a lower resolution-similar to what the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro do. Not everyone has a PC powerful enough for 4K gaming, but if your TV is 4K, you don't want to just set your PC's resolution to 1080p, since certain things will look fuzzy. Imitating auto-game mode will vary from setup to setup, but it's worthwhile if you don't want to turn it on manually every time. If you have a universal remote like one of Logitech's Harmony series, you might be able to program a series of button presses that turns game mode on and off when you invoke the activity for your gaming machines. For example, if you have your PC and consoles plugged into a receiver with dual outputs, you can plug both those outputs into your TV-with one of your TV's inputs set to Game Mode and the other set to the classic movie mode. If you have an newer TV, it may have an option to switch into Game Mode automatically, but if you don't, there are a few ways you might be able to imitate this feature. You may have to dig around your TV's settings to find it, since it's different for every TV (and some cheaper sets may not even have the option), but Game Mode is generally worth the effort. This can seriously decrease input lag, so your controls feel fluid and responsive instead of like slogging through molasses. I recommend setting your TV to Game Mode.
