Can't you just set the games to a lower resolution? Wouldn't that lower the GPU load?
- shmerl 12y agoYou can, but for LCD monitors non native resolution usually degrades image quality. And basically it means that for that scenario you aren't using what you paid for. So it's something to consider when buying it.
- simoncion 12y agoThe Windows version of ATI's Catalyst driver has an option that permits you to use the GPU to scale less-than-native-resolution output to an attached LCD's native resolution. It makes video games a little bit fuzzy, but works better than the built-in LCD rescalers that I've seen.
