So you're saying you'd want to change desktop resolution each time you want to play a performance heavy game? > Non-native resolutions look awful on LCDs anyway, so apps really shouldn't change it. So you're saying developers should take away the options that people actively use because you subjectively don't like how it looks on your specific monitor?

> So you're saying you'd want to change desktop resolution each time you want to play a performance heavy game? Yes, for the Window definitely. If you need to drop the render resolution for perf then the game should upscale at the end (and for fucks sake, handle arbitrary aspect ratios correctly!!!). Personally though, I'd rather wait until I have hardware that can run the game at full resolution.

  I agree about upscaling the end result, some games do that and I really appreciate it. Lately DLSS took it to the whole other level though

No, I'm saying they should remove it because they shouldn't aspire to reimplement an OS. I mean, why does a game need to have a panel to configure my hardware, my OS already has that. Imagine if every single app out there implemented their own "screen resolution" management and settings panel. It makes no sense.

  > every single app out there implemented their own "screen resolution" Every single app doesn't need to render heavy stuff to fullscreen. I have 2K monitor, but I can't run every game out there with 60-75 FPS at 2K, not without DLSS at least. But I agree with the point made in the sibling comment: they should separate output resolution and render resolution to different options.
