    How to figure out the best gaming resolution


    I recently got my Surface Book 2 and my resolution is set to 3240 x 2160 and scaling is at 225%.

    I have seen different suggestions online, the most common seems to be 1920x1080, and I'm wondering how these are worked out?

    I'm just a very casual gamer, but would still like to get the best quality picture.

    :)
