broken scaling cause of heavy/floating mouse, desync, heavy car bug, input lag etc

I don't understand what is wrong with the xl2566k and how to make it acceptable?

The xl2566k has only four screen resolutions on which scaling will work. Please look at the manual of the specific monitor model, do not buy the monitor blindly.
But that doesn't mean xl2566k is bad as there is support for 1280x960 @240hz

So from your experience what is the best res to use on xl2566k on 360hz ?

sorry, I was wrong a little bit here is a screenshot of what resolutions are better to play at 360 hertz.

don't forget to check the manual for a particular monitor on the official website before buying the monitor.

So from what i understand i need download driver for my monitor xl2566k use display no scaling without tick override and use 3 of your resolution what u said and everything will be fine? cuz i dont understand on nvidia part

I recommend watching the official video guide from zowie and you need to use gpu scaling.
And you don't have to select "no scaling" in the nvidia/amd panel.
without checkbox override scaling mode set by games and programs
Be sure to install the monitor driver.

Hi naporitan, I have an ASUS XG259QNS monitor that runs at 380 Hz. And I have a problem when I want to use Black Bars, I have to check "Override the scaling mode set by games and programs" - although as I understand it should work without a check mark, or does this only apply to BenQ Zowie monitors? By the way, thanks to this topic, I fixed the problem with the floating mouse, since my ASUS XG259QNS initially worked out of the box at "360 Hz" and I did not use the overclocking function because I thought that the additional "20 Hz" would not play a big role. And your topic is that you found the cause of the problems that people have been struggling with for years - that's great! Thank you!

P.S I just have some kind of semi-placebo feeling that because of this checkbox "Override the scaling mode set by games and programs" - my sensitivity seems to increase a little, although everything else is fine.

Yes, maybe it's only zowie at the level of the monitor firmware so realized. I am sincerely glad that my observation helped someone to solve the problem.
Check the box if you are getting the best game experience.

I've been losing my mind with this monitor for a year now. The scaling on this monitor is fucking terrible and there hasn't been a driver update since 2023. The esports pro mode is unuseable in valorant unless u want to play with huge black bars on the top and bottom of your screen so there are no good resolutions to play. Ever since I've used this monitor I feel like I can't aim whether its using 360hz with dsc off, 500hz or 540hz. ULMB makes things look smoother but makes mouse inconsistent. I'd have RMA'd it 6 months ago but I accidentally scratched the screen lol.

You need to activate Esports Pro Mode

if you look at the monitor manual, you need to enable DSC and Overclocking for correct scaling
to get 540 hertz you need windows 11 latest version

Use the correct scaling settings in the NVIDIA panel!
