    4k and 1080P Monitor Setup


    I recently purchased Samsung 32-Inch UJ59 UHD 4K with 3840x2160 resolution. I'm running on a ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Turbo Graphic Card TURBO-GTX1080-8G. The 1080p monitor is a Acer G276HL Gbd 27-Inch (1920 x 1080) Widescreen Monitor. My question is, first is that graphics card powerful enough to run all three monitors (One 4k and Two 1080Ps) I have one 1080p hooked up via a display port and the other via HDMI and the 4k is running on HDMI. Are there any settings in windows that I need to change to run it optimally? Its hard to explain but it feels like it's a little clunky. Ive tried reseating the card into the PCI slot, I've tried replacing cables, switching ports, updated the graphics card to the latest studio driver through Nvidia as well as the most up to date windows.

    :)

  2. Dual Monitor Setup issues - 4k and 1080p combination

    The issue is worse than it seems at first. I have a 4k display (200%) scaling and a 1080p display (100% scaling) and even office apps look blurry on the 1080p display. If I unplug the 4k display and reboot the problem goes away. I believe the problem is
    present on all apps and is a system issue. It's been suggested that to get the 100% scaling everything on both monitors is generated at 200% and then the part on the 1080p display is downsampled to 100%, resulting in the poor quality.

    As it is Windows 10 is almost unusable with a very different DPI dual monitor setup.

  3. 4K and 1080p monitors

    Hello everyone,

    I have a question regarding the different resolutions of computer screens. I have laptop with a 4K display and I have a 1080p monitor. Most applications that I use tend to scale correctly when I drag them across displays. However some applications like IDLE
    or Corsair UE don't tend to change their resolutions. They tend to stay the same when dragged to another display, so if it started on the 1080p screen it would go to really small and stay small on the 4k display and if I drag it from the 4k to the 1080p display
    the application is massive and can't be viewed. Is there any possible shortcut which can be used to "refresh" the application without quitting and re-opening?

    Thanks in advance,

    .

  4. 4k and 1080P Monitor Setup

    1080p Laptop Sceen to 4K Monitor

    Hi All,

    I recently updated to a 4K Monitor which i have attached as a second display to my Alienware 1080P Laptop.

    I have noticed at first setup that the 4K monitor has everything so small due to its DPI advantage but its unreadable.

    If i change the resolution to 125% .. 150% the screen becomes blurry.

    If i change the main display to my Monitor it becomes crystal clear at 150% but my laptop screen becomes blurry and zoomed in.

    any help would be great.

    Thanks

    1080p on a 4K monitor or 1080p?: If I get a 4K, I'd play 1080p on it before later upgrading GPU for 4K But I hear 1080p on 4K = blurry. Or is it one of those things like 'very high shadows' v 'high shadows' where you'd need to compare screenshots to see a difference and / or care?
