I don't know if it's a game-issue or not but notice that structure at the far end of the road ahead? It's structure is more pronounced on 'Auto'. I'd assume Auto is better in this scenario compared to whatever custom setting OP used

They were both at the same internal resolution, 1080p to 4k. I noticed very big differences in Warzone with different configurations

From the looks of it, Auto seems to have less ansiotropic-adjacent artifacts, shadows at a distance seem clearer. as well as AO-related graphics seem better preserved.

There is no magic in Auto, it simply calculates the required scale factor based on the screen and game resolution. This is a simple formula scale factor = screen resolution / game resolution.
If there is any difference in quality, it is caused by other options like "Resize before scaling".

You're right, ik it doesnt make a difference its just a random series of tests I wanted to do. Warzone did have a noticible difference to me where one of the options appeared clearer, but I can't explain it

Is it possible to scale up by 5 times to make textures sharper & keep the current resolution?
Part of it is out of my view with fullscreen mode.

This application does not do supersampling, to my knowledge. If you want more detail, you'll need a beefier card and a supersampling solution like NVIDIA DSR. It will render the application in a higher resolution and intelligently scale it down to your native resolution.

If you just want to sharpen the image, set to Auto or Custom mode with scale factor 1, then use FSR/NIS and crank up the sharpness setting. Scale factors are best used with auto-resizing, and a higher scale factor will use a smaller, less detailed window (for example, 2160p is 1080p@2x or 1440p@1.5x).
