Graphics card scaling rather than monitor scaling.

Can I make my graphics card (6800GT) always scale the output to 1280*1024 instead of my monitor scaling a 640*480 game to 1280*1024 when a low res game is played in full screen mode?

Thanks.

I want my graphics card to always output at 1280*1024 by upscaling any lower resolutions rather than sending out a 640*480 signal for my monitor to upscale.

he is asking if there is a way to force the card to output the monitors native res and upscale anything sent to the card to that native res. Usefull for games that dont have options for the res you require.

Come on guys its not hard to see what he's asking. It makes sence too, im sure a card could upscale better than a monitor - just look at what we can do with upsacaling dvd's.

Aye, that's exactly it, thanks.

Yep you have Nvidia forceware right so go into the forceware control panel and under the Digital Flat Panel Settings tab select Display Adapter Scaling. Depends on your TFT though as on some you cannot disable the scaling options regardless of gfx card settings (this is on DVI also unsure about VGA).

I can't find any of those options in the nvidia control panel.
