Play 4K or 2K?

[andrevieira 16]

Hi guys!

I have a 4K monitor, with a rtx2070 super.

So, my question is:

Is it better to play in 4k with render scaling at 70 (at 100 there is already a big fps drop. With 70 I can play very nice with ultra settings), or is it preferable to play at 2k with 100 render scaling?

Thanks.

Personally I prefer 4k with reduced render scale as I prefer the output to be in the native resolution. I have tried most options and on an i5 @4.5 32 GB ram and a 1080ti I can run it at ultra 4k, rendering at 70 and have 30fps locked. It will do slightly more fps (40ish) but not consistently depending on weather and scenery so I keep it locked at 30.

I prefer native 4k but lock frames at 30. Settings on high not ultra though. RTX 2080S.

4K + Rendering 70 + 30fps locked . My best discovery!

Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Yesterday I try 4k with 70 scale rendering, but with 60fps locked. Today I try with 30fps lock.

I'm still on 1920, but I've tried 4k as well on a spare TV.

I think the sweet spot for my RTX3070 is 1440 having tried most of the different resolutions either at home or on other computers.

4k render, 80 scaler most on high with ultra clouds. 2070 Super as well.

I wish to play 4k But I am on 2K Since I have no good  Video card on my TV

I saw glimpse of 4K on my home cockpit, with the wide 52xx X 1200 monitor but I had to cut it down to 10FPS it run s like a dog. IO have GTX 1070

I also have a 4K monitor but I find better smoothness setting it to 2560X1440 and upscale to 110 Render. leaving at 4K and downscaling I have stutters.

What size is the monitor?  Before my current TV I had a 32” monitor at 2k which was great but at my current size 2k is blurry.

7940X / 3090 = 2x 4K at 80

8700K / 3090 = 1x 4K at 100
