hey guys i bought Lenovo Y5070 notebook and its native resolution is 4K which means too much resolution for GTX 960M . now , when i turn the desktop resolution down to 1366x768 things fit right but don't look sharp

how can i make 1360x768 or 1366x768 my native resolution properly ? thanks 😀
 
yeah 4K is too much resolution for 960m in games and its already too much for high end desktop graphics . I was thinking the same but i have some confusions about it . when i turn 4K down to FHD or 1360x768 everything gets little blury and unclear on desktop . now wont the same thing happen in games ??

by the way . if desktop is on 4K and the Game is on 1360x768 then will the game run as fast as if it were on a 1360x768 desktop and game resolution set to 1360x768 ?

simpler version : 4K ( Desktop ) + 1360x768 ( Game ) VS 1360x768 ( Both Game and Desktop ) . which one is faster perofrmance wise ? are they the same thing ?
 
no its not that . mine is 960m and also resolution is 3xxx x xxxx and its 4K . its not FHD . it had FHD version but i bought the 4K and the problem is that refresh rate is locked at 48K on any resolution i set and if i set anything but 4K everything gets blury . n i cant even make custom resolution with refresh rate in nvidia control panel .help please im ... i donno what to do . just bought it and found out all these crap
 
Ah you got one of these.

I guess they do make 4K laptops. It's going to be terrible for gaming though. As you can see turning down the resolution isn't going to look very good.
 
i wish the company would tell people that its refresh rate is locked . i just found out some people have the same issue with 4K version . im working on registery hack to unlock the refresh rate but what can i do about resolution that gets blury on anything but 4K ( its native ) ?
 
try down sampling 1080P while gaming to 1366. It might help. I can't actually give a solid piece of advice, it kinda sounds like that laptop is a consumer trap, it will likely play movies at 4k or give 5 fps on high settings, try low settings in most games @ 4k. Work them back up to maintain a 30-40 fps. Easy on the shadows and aa for better performance. It may not look the greatest but anything is better than blurr
 
Can i replace the panel with FHD one or even HD one ? this might sound crazy but i LOVE HD panels . they are the most rational option for a laptop

mine is 4K but non touch . actually its UHD
