Lowering resolution makes game smaller??

[y2k]

My resolution is like 3,200 x 1,800. I can't play the game at a smooth 60fps at this high of a resolution even with all my GFX turned way down, so, when I lower the resolution the game screen gets... way smaller. It turns into a little box with a giant black border around it. Why is it doing this? How do I lower the resolution but keep the game enlarged to full screen? No other game has done this when I lower resolution...


Thanks!

I have to play the game Fullscreen at 1600x900 in order for the FPS to be at 60, idk if it would work the same but i would say try it

Even if I'm in fullscreen, when I lower to a smaller resolution like that, the game turns in to a really small box. It's hard to describe.

no i understand what you mean, but in that resolution there are no black boarders, i cant play with those black boarders -_-

None of the resolutions allow for the fullscreen for me :( besides my native.

Do you have Window Boxing off?

guys, i had the same problem. once you you change the resolution and the black borders appear, restart the game. The borders will be gone.

Yes, doesn't seem to make any difference. Neither does restarting the game :/.

Does anyone with my specific native rez have this issue?

bump if anyone at my resolution has a fix

Ive got the exact same problem, it doesn't even seem like MK X are addressing this problem for some gamers. Today they even recommended turning down your resolution to improve performance, yet it sucks cause then we have big black borders -.-

Have a look at the image scaling preferences of your GPU. Set it so it upscales lower resolutions but maintains the aspect ratio so it doesn’t stretch.

I fixed the issue for myself. Hopefully anyone else in this situation can get some help from this;

I have two GPUs. Onboard, intel, and my gaming GPU by nvidia. Basically, since nividia isn't my primary GPU, i don't get scaling preferences in nvidia control pannel. And my intel GPU control center locks it on 'maintin aspect ratio'.

What you need to do is, if you're in my situation, lower the resolution in your intel control pannel. it'll unlock scaling options, so you can select 'scale to screen'. Then open MKX and it'll scale lower resolutions. ENJOY 60fps violence.

I created two profiles in my intel control center, one called 'desktop' at native rez, and one 'MKX' at a lower resolution i can quickly switch to for scaling.

This double GPU situation also makes it a total pain to set up 3D on an external monitor... but that's totally unrelated.

ho can you ever have a dedicated graphics card, that is not your priomary graphics card over intel integrated graphics. that is not even a "graphics card" it is as it says integrated gfx controller in the cpu.sounds like you have some settings fuddled somwehere as your nvidia gpu should handle most if not all things graphically related.

my i5 2500k is of the gen where it doesnt have intel integrated so i dont get this kind of thing happen but im pretty sure there will be a way to stop your intel gfx settings taking any precedence over your actual gpu.

We really shouldnt have to be chaning our resolution for the sake of one game, all my other games handle this fine. We pay money for the game and then we have to mess about just to get it to work -.- welcome to todays age of gaming i guess
