Display Scaling

[RemiiW]

Hi,

Could someone check if there's option for Display scaling on XL2546 or PG258Q for Windows 10, cus i'm about to buy this but all i see on my VG248QE there's no GPU Scaling (only avaible if i delete all res and put max refresh rate on 95hz but buying 240hz to play 95 display scaling on W10 makes no sense), could anyone confirm that there's Display scaling on any of these monitors? (screenshoots will be much appreciated)

(for XL2546)
(for PG there's G-Sync but still option is on W7 with display scaling)

On newer monitors and newer GPUs it usually doesn't matter since GPU scaling overhead has become essentially lagless (linebuffered scaling rather than framebuffered scaling) -- practically dissappeared (for single monitor systems at least).

In fact, I've now seen situations where GPU scaling is faster than Display Scaling sometimes -- when you're benchmarking linebuffered GPU scaling to framebuffered Display scaling. (Little info is provided on how scaling is done, but any scaling that takes less than 1 frame of latency is linebuffered scaling, which makes GPU scaling as lagless as the best Display scaling)

If you're still looking for ways to force Display Scaling, some monitors have their own scaling feature, but this is often poorly documented which monitor has what scaling features. Whereas, the GPU scaling feature is always much more consistent regardless of which monitor you are using.

Are you needing to play at lower resolutions? Zoomed or 1:1 pixel mapped?
