DSR for Ultrawide

[Dirk Diggler]

If I want to use DSR with X34a and 980ti SLI, then...

• What multiplier should I use in NCP?
• What smoothness?
• What res do I select in game?

TIA

What resolution do you want? 4k equivalent or something?

 

[Dirk Diggler]

I really just want to increase in steps and maintain the ratio and see how the cards cope.

I would personaly try 2x and 4x. I struggled to get anything else to work well, it just came out a bit of a mess but your mileage might vary.

I just highlighted those resolutions in my NVidia control panel then went into the ingame menu and the high resolutions appeared in the ingame option screen. It was quite obvious which ones to pick as they appear at the bottom and should be way above your default resolution.

Smoothness I played with it being all the way to the left then all the way to the right. From memory I left it all the way to the left.

I've went 2.25x which gives me 5160*2160 which is 4k UltraWide and selected 15% smoothness. I've still to test it, so will bear your suggestion in mind.

Cheers.

let us know how you get on,

I've been wondering whether going 2560x1080 and using vsr is a good idea, 3440x1440 is the sweet spot I'd like to hit, Presumably that's what you are starting with. If Vega can run 3440x1440 with no problems I'll probably go with that but I'm wondering if something like this one https://www.overclockers.co.uk/acer...en-super-wide-zeroframe-curved-mo-092-ac.html which has a 144hz VA panel is a good option or will I be better off with a 3440x1440 75hz IPS like the Predator?https://www.overclockers.co.uk/acer...-super-wide-curved-led-monitor-mo-090-ac.html

I tried out 4k a fair bit with lower powered games like heroes of the storm and starcraft. It felt it improved the visuals more than any AA I've used, shame it absolutely hammered performance!

I literally tick all the boxes in nvidia control panel. Then go through on a game by game basis and find the sweet spot, a point at which I am not taking a perceptible hit to the fps. Varies on a game by game basis IMO to apply a single figure to them all.

For smoothness leave it on defult 33% normally.

go through on a game by game basis and find the sweet spot,

That's the best way, every games different so set up each one the first time you go to play it and if Nvidia's software set up is like AMD's Crimson you can save them individually, I'm pretty sure you can do the same thing, I think Nvidia did it first.

go with the xr34, really nice monitor,im also waiting for vega but the fury is doing a pretty decent job for the time being

Games like Witcher3 run 3440*1440 really well with Ultra/Max so I'm not using DSR there, it's mainly for games like Batman AO that hits 99fps @ 3440*1440 with both cards sitting around 35%... I just feel the extra power is there, so why not use it?

Unfortunately Batman AO locks itself to 60fps when I use DSR so defeats the purpose!
