I also have an older ViewSonic model than yours and exact same behavior. In my case, scaling can only be done via HDMI port and it's locked at 60Hz.

I also sent a "sales enquiry" thing via their website and this was their response. Many thanks for contacting us. Unfortunately our worldwide strategy doesn’t include the distribution for Europe of XG2431; even tough we get your feedback as suggestion and take care of it. Kind Regards. Sales Directo...

Well, ViewSonic Gaming twitter account just confirmed me that this monitor isn't going to be released in Europe This is sad news. But given the recent interacts here with ViewSonic customer service (where they even said this monitor was delayed to next year) i'm still hopeful. And also the fact tha...

I meant resolutions lower than 1080p. Will it do, say, 1728x1080 or 1680x1050 at 240Hz? On the manual posted few posts back, i can only see this:

It should.

Thanks. Keeping my eye on this monitor and curious to see those reviews once it comes out

Will we be able to use display scaling with this monitor for resolutions < than 1080p at max refresh rate? Either via HDMI or DisplayPort I have only tested and XG2431 supports 4K 60Hz input. Obviously, it scales it down to 1080p 60. I have not tested 1440p or 4K at higher Hz, the cable bandwidth i...

Will we be able to use display scaling with this monitor for resolutions < than 1080p at max refresh rate? Either via HDMI or DisplayPort

I remember seeing that thread some time ago, but as you said, only with 60Hz/75Hz. I was looking for a minimum of 120Hz via HDMI for resolutions lower than 1080p but pretty sure it won't work. Doesn't hurt to give it a try tho, i guess.

Yup, i don't have an HDMI cable as well, since it only came with the DisplayPort one. Any recommendation for getting one HDMI cable or it's just all the same? Monitor scaling is only available through HDMI on this monitor so i wanted to test this. But as you say, and going by the reviews, it's proba...

My monitor - ViewSonic XG2703-GS (27" 165Hz 1440p IPS G-Sync) - has one HDMI 1.4 port.

Would it be able to do this?

It's the result of a lot of alt-tabbing to see which setting matches the subjective sharpness of 1440p when playing at 1080p :mrgreen: 36-40% seems to match it best, so I usually go with 38%. For 900p (1600x900), 44% seems OK. That's why i asked, because i tend to use another resolutions (1680x1050...
