Does running windows scale higher effect P3Dv4x

Recommended Posts

I currently run a 4K Sony TV @ 30hz. I run my Windows scale at 150 so its easier to read text in windows but it doesn't effect P3D VC except for the text messages in red like FPS, LAT/LONG, etc. Does running 150 scale case a performance hit? I read mixed messages that say we should leave it at 100%.

Text size should not have a performance hit, but you may have trouble with not having room to see all the text within menus

Nah, I also use that scaling and there's not a performance impact.  In fact, programs that are affected run better because the old man in front of the screen can better read what is displayed.

I run a 4k monitor with the text scale up no problem.
