From which the maximum screen resolution depends. How to find out and change screen resolution (the image is too large). Requirements from AMD.

Need to buy a new monitor, but do not know where to start, how to behave when choosing? You need to correctly select the screen resolution, because it will largely depend on the quality of the resulting picture. And this is important when working with computer programsand when watching video. This article will help to figure out which screen resolution is better for the monitor in your case. Let's start about everything in order.

In fact, it is very difficult to choose the best screen expansion. Obviously, the choice of permission depends on the purpose of buying a monitor. Games? Social networks? What screens come and what should be for have a nice watching? For each goal there is its own optimal permission. In order not to miss the choice, you need to get acquainted with the terminology.

Basic classification

Resolution - the maximum number of pixels arranged horizontally and verticals:

• A display that supports the resolution below 640x480 points is called VGA.
• If points 800 × 600 or more - SVGA.
• Monitors with a resolution of 1024x768 points are sometimes called XGA.

Each display is characterized by permission. The size of the display device and permission are different things. When choosing, it is best to be guided by the characteristics of the existing device.

Important! What screen resolution is better? Each monitor has the parameters recommended for it, which are selected in such a way that each pixel on the display device coincides with the pixel in the image, which will result in the maximum clear picture. Optimal "dimensions" are specified in the technical characteristics of the device.

Permissions of monitors and their types

What normal or big should be the screen resolution? The maximum resolution of the liquid crystal monitor is determined by the resolution of its matrix. The higher it is, the more different data it is possible to display. Consider on specific examples:

• LCD monitors depends on the size of the matrix. Do not forget that the maximum screen resolution depends on the screen diagonal. For 15-inch displays, the resolution is characterized in 1024x768 pixels. Perfectly suitable for the simplest office monitors.
• 19 and 17-inch monitors are equipped with a resolution of 1280x1024 points. Such monitors perform a wider range of tasks.
• Modern monitors are equipped with a higher resolution. It constitutes 1600x1200 pixels and more.
• Each years on the same diagonal, more and more points are fed. Who knows what will wait for us in a couple of years?

Setting screen resolution

To configure the resolution of the device, you do not need to have special knowledge in modern technique:

1. Open the Start menu, and then go to the "Control Panel".
2. In the category "Design and Personalization", select "Screen Resolution Setting".
3. In the "Resolution" menu, you can set the values \u200b\u200byou need.

Diagonal size

The screen diagonal is an important characteristic that distinguishes from each other, while strongly affecting price category. Basically allocate four categories of monitors:

1. 20 inches - a choice for the office. Budget is the main criterion of choice, if you are an entrepreneur.
2. 20-24 inches. More than half of the display devices that were sold in 2016 belong to this category.
3. 27 inches. Such "devices" should not be installed on the usual "worker" distance, since such a diagonal will make noticeable individual pixels.
4. 30 inches and more. Are not a massive product due to high prices, overall dimensions.

Important! The last two categories do not use much popular and are not suitable for "standard" home use.

Occasionally you can meet special systemsconsisting of several monitors. Such systems have their advantages, especially among gamers. But for trouble-free work it will be necessary pretty powerful computer. Yes, and the market is no longer deprived of devices virtual realitythat go cheaper and have an effect of an order of magnitude higher and better.

A little about TV

Each format has its own advantages. But choosing a value that defines the number of points per unit area, you need, pushing out from the existing signal source:

• HD-READY - Screens are suitable for all types modern television. But best of all this format is suitable for viewing DVD movies.
• Full HD - Devices with the parameters of 1920x1080. Miraculously suitable for using game consoles, satellite TV channels and Blue-Ray disk players

Aspect ratio

When choosing a display, it is worth considering the aspect ratio. Let's talk about several of the most popular formats of the screens of our days.

The most famous screens formats:

• Previously, the monitors of the first computers and TVs were in format 4 to 3. These numbers express the aspect ratio of the display object. The overwhelming majority of TVs have such a format.
• The ratio of 5: 4 is popular. This format often used in the manufacture of screens for computers.
• But gradually gaining popularity new format - 16: 9. It is this format that is the founder of the new image size.

Benefit and convenience of wide format

The main bid of a wide format is convenience. The user is easier to perceive information on the sides, and not on the side and below. But we will not miss all the nuances. Widescreen monitors are much cheaper in production.

The devices of such a format have opponents, and supporters:

• Someone is more convenient to work and relax for the widescreen monitor.
• Someone boring to flip "there and here" the page in search necessary information And they will prefer to use the 4: 3 screen.

Important! For work and rest in social networks The screens 4: 3 or 5: 4 are suitable, because it will be possible to open several windows at the same time, and there will be more space for work. But we will not forget that all this is statistics, and each user has the right to decide independently, with which "sizes" it is more convenient for working.

Optimal distance to the monitor

For any size of the monitor, you need to know the correct distance to it. To determine the optimal distance to the screen, there is a universal formula - coefficient 1 or 1.5 must be multiplied by a diagonal.

Important! The location of the information display device at the calculated distance will help not tire your eyes when working with a computer.

Types of matrix

To date, the matrices are known to be manufactured in the following principles:

• TN-matrices are inexpensive and fast. Technique based on them relatively inexpensive and well suited for computer games with dynamics.

Important! A minus such matrices is a small viewing angle and not the most acceptable color rendering. Professionals such devices are definitely not suitable.

• IPS - better and expensive matrices. Color transmission is noticeably better than the previous type. Not removed by a good viewing angle.

Important! The disadvantage of these matrices is the longer response time.

• VA - a compromise between TN and IPS matrices and in price, and as. A short response time and color reproduction is better than the previous ones. But this type It strongly depends on the angle of view and has not the best geston transmission.

The most important thing when choosing is to take into account your individual preferences and acquisition objectives:

• for computer games, monitors with a short response time will be suitable;
• for design - with good color reproduction.

Stock foot

Relying on the information in this article, you can easily figure out all the nuances of choosing a high-quality display, and its further operation will not cause any difficulties or discomfort.

Have you happened to get into the following situation? The boss or customer wants to understand what size your design is in printed form, but the monitor does not show a real size. You can only customize the layout on the line of the magnifying glass, and apply leaves to the screen. After this article, this will come to this!

Monitor resolution is measured by pixels

Speaking of resolution constantly comes terrible confusion. Under the resolution in Photoshop, they understand the number of pixels per square inch, under the resolution of the monitor, imply the number of pixels in width and height of the screen. What to talk about the camera resolution or camera resolution.

Cause of confusion in incorrectly translated terms of English language. People constantly confuse RESOLUTION and Dimension. You shouldn't blame them for it, the meaning is really very similar.

But now we are talking about the resolution of the monitors. Under the resolution of your monitor, its width and height in pixels are implied. And no more.

When I studied at school, computer monitors had permission no more than 800 per 600 pixels. And it was considered very nice. Some lucky ones had 1024 monitors at 768 pixels. These, it is clear, was considered the most cool to the whole school.

Time passed, today my parents have an average monitor with a resolution of 1920 to 1080 pixels. What does it mean by expressing simple language? This means that in 10 years our monitors have received an additional 1000 pixels, height and width. But their physical size remained about the same. Monitors have not rose twice. Perhaps a little diverged in width. Widescreen, you know. But the resolution changed proportions.

So how many pixels in one inch of your monitor?

How to calculate the real size on the screen?

Answer photoshop and hand agility will answer the above question. Did you have encountered a scrupulous customer who wanted to understand how much space will really take your sticker, flyer, cover or postcard? At the same time, the product for printing did not go, it exists only in the monitor?

In this situation, you try to explain that the dimensions do not match, but approximately .... And begin to adjust the size tool with a magnifying glass, checking it with a ruler laid on the screen. Okay, I confess, I did it when I just started working.

In the calculation of the real size you will help the Zoom Tool Magnifier tool. Select a magnifying glass in Photoshop and on the settings pane, click Print Size. This button shows the real printed size of your graphics.

And if everything is correct, you will get a complete inconsistency with a real print size. That is, yes, the button will do something, will increase or decrease the graphics. Unfortunately not in the printed size, but in some kind of your own, invented. Looks like it does not work? Or not?

Mysterious 72 and 96 DPI

You probably came across these two values. 72DPI, or rather 72 PPI (PIXTELS PER INCH). Theoretically, this means that at your monitor, 72 pixels fits in one inch. Practically, it would correspond to reality if 85 would stand on the courtyard. Slightly weather monitors have improved their pixel performance. The screens were able to fit 96 pixels per inch. It is so little that looking at the monitor you still can distinguish pixels.

Today, monitors have completely different permission and the ability to fits pixels per inch. This number varies from 90 to 120 pixels per inch.

When we create a new area in Photoshop, the program invites us to establish the permission of the workspace. By default, it costs 72. However, if you select the blank layout for web graphics, the value will be changed to 96. Both values \u200b\u200bdo not mean anything to the smooth account. This will not affect the workspace. The monitor shows so many pixels as the pixels are installed in its operating system in width and height.

If you made a website width of 1280 pixels, be prepared for the fact that it will not be able to be correctly displayed on monitors with a resolution of 800 pixels in width, although such monitors are not found.

It is asked if the resolution does not affect anything, why is it necessary at all? It is necessary first of all for printing and printing. There, the number of pixels per inch is extremely important, as it determines the picture quality on paper.

In web design, the resolution also affects the ratio of some physical parameters. Roughly speaking, on the line\u003e Ruler in one inches you will have 96 pixels instead of 72. The ratio of font size will also change. Time New Roman 12P When resolving 72 pixels and Time New Roman 12PT when resolving 96 pixels is the fonts of different sizes. Because PT - POINT is physical size, and relies on physical quantities, and the visual size of the physical size depends on the linked resolution size. In our case, it is different. That is, the letters 12p at 96 pixels permissions are more than at 72x.

Otherwise, put at least 1PPI until you cook the screen layout it does not matter, given that the resolution ratio to the size of the workspace can be counted in seconds.

How to measure the flyer on the monitor?

So how to measure the real permission of the monitor, and why the PRINT SIZE button does not work? Do not worry, everything is under control. Button does not work because incorrect settings Permissions. In the resolution settings, the artifacts of the past 72 or 96ppi were signed. You need to set the real permission of your monitor and then everything will be as it should.

It is important to understand that the monitor supports several permits to once. For example, the one on which I now work now supports dimensions from 800 to 600 to 1920 per 1080 pixels. The latter of course is default.

It is important to understand that with a size of 800 per 600 pixels in inches there will be one number of pixels, and with a resolution in 1920 to 1080, completely different. Much bigger. Of course, we are of course the best permission that your monitor can support, and not the worst thing. From him and will be repelled.

How to find out the permission of your monitor

The resolution of your monitor must be written in the monitor's technical passport. It is impossible to find it most often. IN specifications Real permission also writes not always. Moreover, they do not always write even sizes in width and height. For your old Samsung, I found the size of the plastic edging, and this is not what you need. You need a clean screen size, and no more.

If you find sizes or permission failed, go to plan B, stick and rope. Take a ruler, measure the monitor in width and height. I measured the LG monitor on which I write an article, it turned out 48 by 27 cm.

1 inch \u003d 2.54 cm That is, my monitor is about 19 by 10.5 inches. I will round, because the special accuracy is not needed here. Yes, and what accuracy can we say, measuring the monitor of the ruler.

The monitor permission is set to 1920 per 1080 pixels. We divide the width of 1920 to 19. Radiating 100. When dividing 1080 to 10.5, the same is obtained. That's all, the real permission of the 100PPI monitor.

That is, by 1 inch of the monitor, with a resolution of 1920 to 1080, about 100 pixels fit.

Customize the resolution in Photoshop

Finally, how to configure the PRINT SIZE button in Photoshop? We go to the EDIT\u003e Preference settings. Open the Units & Ruler tab. In the dialog box, in the SCREEN RESOLUTION setting, we change the revealed permission to the correct one. In my case 100. All.

Now try creating a 300dpi resolution. Suppose we prepare a leaflet for printing. Find the Real Lytic A4 on the desktop. In Photoshop, press the PRINT SIZE button. Apply the leaf to the screen. It is done.

Now, to the customer's question, and what will it be in real life? " You do not have to draw in the air with your hands, you don't have to customize the screen, you don't have to apply to a piece of paper and say, but this. Enough click on Print Size. Photoshop itself will show everything.

I hope this article has proven to you useful and successful experiments in printing!

In accordance with the characteristics of the monitor windows system Automatically applies optimal display parametersIn particular, screen resolution, update frequency and color. These parameters also depend on the type of monitor. To configure Display Parameters Or restore default settings, follow the recommendations below.

LCD monitors, which are also called flat monitors, substantially displaced the CRT monitors. They are much easier and thinner than bulky electrical monitors with glass tubes. LCD monitors are also represented by a wide range of shapes and sizes, including widescreen screens and screens of standard widths with ratios of 16: 9 and 16:10 for widescreen models and 4: 3 in standard width models. Laptops also use flat displays.

In the case of both types of monitors, the larger the dots on the screen are installed inch, the better the fonts are displayed. By increasing the number of dot points, you increase the screen resolution. The resolution you use depends on the permission supported by the monitor. The higher the resolution, for example, 1900x1200 pixels, the clearer items will be displayed. They will also be less, which will allow you to place additional items on the screen. The lower the resolution, for example, 800x600 pixels, the fewer items can fit on the screen (the size of the elements increases).

Windows allows you to increase or decrease text size and other items on the screen, while maintaining the optimal monitor resolution.

Best display options for LCD monitors

If you use the LCD monitor, check its permission. This will determine the clarity of the image on the screen. For LCD monitors, it is recommended to establish your own resolution: that which the manufacturer has provided for the monitor according to its size.

To check the monitor resolution, check the display settings on the control panel:

1. Click the drop-down list next to the resolution. Find the resolution with the icon (recommended). This is your own resolution of the LCD monitor. It is usually the highest resolution that it supports.

Information about its own resolution of the LCD monitor can be obtained from its manufacturer or supplier.

LCD monitors on which the own resolution is installed, usually display the text better than the ETT monitors. Technically LCD monitors can support permission below their own. However, the text may be displayed in fuzzy, the image can be small, placed in the middle of the screen, bordered in black frame, and the image may look stretched.

Since autonomous monitors are usually more than laptop screens, they have higher resolution than laptops.

Resolution of the LCD monitor in accordance with its dimensions

Setting color reproduction for LCD monitor

To obtain best color reproduction of the LCD monitorMake sure the display mode is set to a 32-bit color. This measurement means the color depth: the number of color values \u200b\u200bthat can be assigned to one pixel in the image. The value of the color depth can vary from 1 (black and white) to 32 bits (more than 16.7 million colors).

1. Open the Screen Resolution window.
2. Click Extra options and go to the tab Monitor.
3. In chapter Colors Choose True Color (32 bits) and click OK.

Color management

Windows also contains additional color management elements. Color management systems provide the most accurate color reproduction on any devices, in particular on monitors and printers.

Display Calibration

The display calibration software allows you to get accurate color reproduction on the screen. If the computer is installed software To calibrate the display from another supplier, calibrate the display with it.

Display calibration devices are often supplied with the necessary software. Using a device for calibration with the software with which it has been supplied, you can achieve the best color rendering results.

Windows also has a display calibration feature.

Tuning brightness and contrast

On external displays, brightness and contrast are configured using the monitor controls, and not windows tools. Most of the ELT and LCD monitors have on the front panel of the button or other controls, with which you can control brightness and contrast.

In some monitors, the menu opens on the screen in which the appropriate setting is performed. To find out how to use these controls, refer to the monitor manual or on the manufacturer's website.

The brightness of the screens of most laptops is configured by Windows. If you use a laptop, brightness can be configured in the "Power" window.

Improving text display

Windows uses CleArtype technology that is enabled by default. Using this technology, the fonts on the monitor are displayed as clearly and smoothly. It facilitates long-term reading of the text, not tiring eyes. The greatest efficiency can be achieved when working with LCD displays, flat monitors, laptops and portable devices.

Make sure the Cleartype technology is not disabled, especially when the text on the screen looks fuzzy. Cleartype technology can be configured to work with a specific monitor.

How to increase screen resolution on windows 7 to 1920 1080

How to increase maximum monitor screen resolution

High screen resolution plays a special role in games. The more points (pixels) on the screen, the better the picture in general is. Others graphic settingsAs, for example, smoothing, the quality of textures, the drawing of shadows and water often affect the image on the screen is not as much as the size of the permission, that is, the number of these very points. Therefore, an increase in permission (and in our case - maximum resolution) will help raise the overall level of graphics in games.

Of course, the methods described in the article will allow you to raise the screen resolution and in the operating system the whole, not only in games.

Nowadays, the video card market is divided between two large firms: AMD and NVIDIA. Each of them has developed its own technology that allows you to increase the maximum allowable (according to the monitor specification) permission. You have to be not too weak (not too old) a video card from one of the manufacturers data so that the material of this article for you makes sense.

If you do not know the brand of your video card, then read the next item of the article. If you know - let's boldly skip.

How to find out the brand of your video card

We offer a solution for Windows owners. We need to get into the device manager through the control panel. In Windows 8, call sidebar On the right, click on the parameters (button with the gear icon), and then click on the appropriate control panel item.

IN previous versions Windows in the control panel can be accessed through the Start menu. So, now from the control panel, go to the Device Manager.

In the Device Manager, go to the video adapter section, and already directly from there you can see at least a brand of your video card at the corresponding paragraph. If you want to know more information about the video card, then click on this item twice or call the right mouse button on it the context menu in which click on the property item.

Requirements from AMD.

According to AMD's site, you must have any video card from the following list or newer and powerful:

• AMD RADEON ™ R9 FURY SERIES.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 390 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 380 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R7 370 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R7 360 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 295x2.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 290 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 280 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R9 270 Series.
• AMD RADEON ™ R7 260 Series.
• AMD Radeon ™ HD 7900 Series.
• AMD Radeon ™ HD 7800 Series.
• AMD Radeon ™ HD 7790 Series.
• Desktop A-Series 7400K APU and above.

Below is a table with supported permissions and those permissions that can be achieved, respectively, supported.

AMD Radeon video cards solution

AMD has a Virtual Super Resolution technology (abbreviated - VSR), developed several years ago just with the aim of letting the players improve the quality of graphics in games. To change the maximum screen resolution, you will need fresh version AMD programs Catalyst Control Center, which must be installed in all AMD video card holders. If you do not have a program for some reason, it can be downloaded on the official website. We also recommend updating the drivers for your video card.

Step 1. So, we go into the program: Press my digital flat panels to the item. Another list appears.

Click on property item (digital flat panel). In the Preferences of the Image Scaling section, we put a check mark in the Enable Virtual Super Range field.

Click the Apply button in the lower right corner of the program.

Step 2. Then you need to go to settings with resolution change. To do this, click on the right mouse button on a free place on the desktop and select the screen resolution item in the context menu or go to the control panel, and from there to the screen section where you want to click on the button Setting the screen resolution. Now you can choose a higher resolution in the list of the same name.

New available permissions can also be selected in other programs where the resolution change parameter is present.

It should be noted that with increasing permission, the computer spends additional computing power. Usually, significant computer resources are allocated to it, and it is necessary to remember that the screen resolution change to the higher may cause a decrease in performance.

Requirements from NVIDIA

You must have a monitor with a resolution of at least 1920 × 1080 pixels, and the video card is not lower than four hundred series (GeForce 400 Series)

Solution for owners of video cards from NVIDIA

NVIDIA has a similar technology - Dynamic Super Resolution (abbreviated - DSR) - which allows you to increase the screen resolution in games up to 4K, that is, up to 3840 × 2160 pixels. We advise you to update the video card drivers, as in the case of AMD Radeon.

Go to the NVIDIA Control Panel, then in the 3D Parameters section, select Manage 3D Parameters. Here in the DSR parameter - the degree in the drop-down list, select those items with the corresponding resolution that you need. For example, if you want to put 4K permission, then select 4.00X (Native Resolution). Do not choose too much permissions, as this can lead to a reduction in speed: Choose only those you want to use. Do not forget to save the settings.

Now the selected permissions are available in games and in the screen resolution settings in your operating system. Remember that too high resolution reduces computer performance, which can "fall" fps in games.

Change the resolution and frequency of the screen update in Windows7, Windows 8.1

The screen resolution determines the clarity of the text and images displayed on the screen.

For large permissions, for example, at 1920 × 1080 pixels (Full HD), objects look clearer. In addition, objects are glorified, and more on the screen can fit more. With low permissions, for example at 1024 × 768 pixels, fewer objects are felt on the screen, but they look bigger.

Usually by more monitorThe higher the high resolution it supports. The ability to increase screen resolution depends on the size and capabilities of the monitor, as well as from the type of video adapter used.

There are several ways to change screen resolution:

1 Using standard Windows tools.

2 With the help of third-party utilities (usually when installing drivers on a video card, you already put a program in which you can change the image settings).

Change the screen resolution by standard Windows tools.

In order to change the screen resolution in Windows7 / Windows 8.1, you must right-click on the desktop and select "Screen Resolution".

In the "Resolution" line using the slider you can select the desired screen resolution.

After selecting the resolution, you must click the "Apply" button, the Offer Save Settings window appears if you do not press "Save Changes" within 15 seconds, the resolution settings are not saved. This is done to automatically return the settings to the previous one, so if you select not the correct screen resolution, press the Apply button and you will disappear / distort the image, then waiting 15 seconds everything will return back and you will understand that the selected permission is not suitable for your monitor .

In addition, you can change the frequency of changing the image on the screen, for this click "Advanced Options", you will go to the "Monitor" tab and in the Monitor Settings field, select the Screen Update frequency.

Change the screen resolution by third-party programs.

Often when installing drivers on the video card, in addition to the driver, a program that helps configure the image on the monitor is installed. In particular, if you have video Card NVIDIA That is probably worth the NVIDIA control panel. In order to start this panel, you can right-click on the desktop and select "NVIDIA Control Panel" or run it from the taskbar (the icon will be near the clock).

In the opened panel, select the Resolution Changing tab, on the right in the Add Resolution and the Screen Update Field, click the Apply button.

Increase screen resolution on Windows 7.

Hello dear readers, in today's article you will learn how to increase screen resolution on Windows 7, as well as which of them are most often popular, but before you start, I want to explain what the screen resolution is.

This is a value indicating the number of points in a single area. As a rule, this term applies to video files and photos. Click on the free place of desktop right-click, and in the opened context menu, select the "Screen Resolution" item. After that, a window will open through which you can not only increase the screen resolution, but also to find out what image format you have at the moment. For this, just need to open the menu, in the "Resolution" paragraph. Here you will see that on my computer is an image within 1680x1050, so we can say that this is the standards of my video card and the monitor is the highest indicator. But if you do not have it, you can increase them to the maximum, putting the highest value, however In this case, be careful, with an increase in the image format, the computer speed (performance) often drops, especially if your computer is weak. And finally, let me write about several of the most popular formats encountered on computers with the Windows 7 operating system installed:

1. 1680x1050 - WSXGA + highest;
2. 1600x1200 - UXGA;
3. 1600x1024 - WSXGA;
4. 1280x1024 - SXGA;
5. 1280x720 - HD 720p;
6. 800x600 - SVGA, lower resolution on Windows 7.

That's it! Now you know how to increase the screen resolution and the next time you can do it yourself, but again I repeat that one should not overdo it, since the speed of the computer may noticeably decrease.

How to increase screen resolution on a laptop -

Increasing the screen resolution is a difficult procedure, which often during its execution forces the user to use help from the side. Often there are situations where the laptop user changes the screen resolution (matrix) inadvertently by pressing the combination of hot keys, or for the convenience of work, it shall be seen suitable for its needs.

Methods for increasing the resolution of the matrix on a laptop

Note! Each specific model has its own "ceiling" of the greatest permission.

What are the permission of the monitor?

It is determined by the maximum value that is supported by the laptop matrix. Attempts to increase the resolution to the values \u200b\u200bthat are not supported by the matrix can lead to its damage and further incorrect work. By the way, the laptop matrix replacement is one of the most expensive PC repairs.

On each operating system installed a utility to configure the screen resolution;

1. In order to use it to exit the desktop, right-click in any free place.

You can also use the following alternative and no more difficult way: "Start / Control Panel / Screen / Screen Resolution". This path to the utility can be insignificantly changed depending on the version used;

3. Select the most suitable resolution by moving the slider.

It is not always possible to achieve the desired this way: in most cases, the user does not have the opportunity to choose the maximum permission due to the fact that the system cannot recognize technical specifications Matrix installed.

Setup via video card software

1. Before performing the described procedure using the video card drivers, check the presence of their installation by opening the command building with a combination of Win + R keys and speaking the DevmGMT.msc command in it.

3. If there is no needed software in the OS, you must install the video card driver from the disk, which is included with the laptop, or from the official website of the video card manufacturer.

After installation, be sure to restart the PC.

4. After making sure the video drivers, go to the taskbar, which is located in the lower right corner of the screen.

5. Find and open the video card software, then select the "Screen Personalization" section and start selecting the appropriate resolution.

screen resolution

Information for inexperienced users about what is the resolution of the computer screen and how to configure it correctly. The article will give an opportunity to add an idea of \u200b\u200bthe principles of forming an image on a computer monitor, as well as some factors affecting its quality.

What is the screen resolution

The image on the screens of all modern devices (monitors of computers, laptops, tablets, etc.) are formed from very small points, called pixels. It is noticeable, if you look at the monitor at close range. The more points form an image, the these points are less noticeable, and the image is clearer. One of the most important characteristics of any monitor is the number of points that it can simultaneously display. Maximum amount At the same time displayed points is called maximum screen resolution. The screen resolution is usually indicated in the form of two digits, the first of which means the number of points displayed by the horizontal monitor, the second vertical (for example, 1920 x 1080). Each monitor model has its maximum screen resolution. The higher it is better monitor. At the same time, permission can not be arbitrary. There are certain standards that monitors are held and taking into account computer software. The most common standards permissions are 1920x1080, 1440x1050, 1440x900, 1280x1024, 1280x960, etc. Inexperienced users sometimes confuse the concept "screen resolution" With a concept "Screen size". These are completely different things. Screen size - It is its length diagonally (the distance from one of the corners to the opposite corner) is measured in inches. Miscellaneous monitors may have the same permission, and vice versa - the same monitors can be different permission. The larger the screen size, the higher the permission should be. Otherwise, the pixels, of which the image is formed on it, will be too noticeable at close range (the picture will not be quite clear). In the computer settings you always need to choose the maximum screen resolution supported by the monitor. , regardless of its size. If you select the resolution less than the maximum possible, the image quality will be worse than which the monitor is actually capable. If more images are not at all (we get a black screen).

How to configure screen resolution

First of all, you need to know the maximum resolution supported by the computer monitor. This information is usually indicated in the documentation that is included in the package when purchasing a monitor. Knowing the monitor model name, you can also get information about its maximum resolution from the Internet (see the manufacturer's website or specialized sites).

Screen Permissions Setup Depends on the version of Windows installed on the computer:

Windows Vista, Windows 7: close or roll everything open windows, hide the mouse pointer to an empty place on the desktop, click right button Mouse. The context menu will open, in which you want to select the "Screen Resolution" item (click on it with the left mouse button). In the window that appears, you must open the drop-down menu next to the "Resolution" inscription (click on it with the mouse) and move the slider to the value corresponding to the desired screen resolution (see the image on the right, click on it with the mouse). Then click the "Apply" button and confirm the installation of new parameters;

Windows XP.: close or roll out all open windows, hover the mouse pointer to an empty place on the desktop, click the right mouse button. The context menu will open, in which you want to select the item "Properties" (click on it with the left mouse button). In the window that opens, go to the "Parameters" tab, where in the "Screen Resolution" item to move the slider to the value corresponding to the desired screen resolution (see the image to the right, click on it with the mouse). Then click the Apply button and confirm the changes in the settings.

If there is no appropriate option among the values \u200b\u200boffered by the computer, it means that or you did not correctly identified the maximum screen resolution for your monitor model (check again), or the video card driver is missing.

In the latter case, you need to know which video card is installed on the computer, download the driver for it (from its manufacturer's site) and install it. After rebooting the computer in its settings, the appropriate option is available available.

Setting up Windows 7 desktop interface

On screen Desktop We get when we enter the Windows XP system. With this screen, we have to work most, and it is important to set it up first.

Desktop - This is the main screen of the Windows operating system. The settings of its settings affect the nature of the display of windows and most application programs.

General desktop parameters

Image resolution. Screen is a bitmap device. This means that the screen image is composite. It is composed of separate raster points called pixels.

The raster image has two characteristics: physical size and information container. The physical size is expressed by linear units of measurement: meters, millimeters, inches, etc. It is inextricably linked to the carrier on which the image is reproduced.

Information container is characterized by the number of points (pixels) constituting a raster image.

Between the image size and its capacity there is a relationship through a parameter called an image resolution, or expansion. The resolution is measured by the number of information points per unit length of the image when playing it.

Resolution is a very expressive parameter. It simultaneously characterizes:

· Perfection of the processes of creating, recording and reproducing the image;

· Technical level of image recording and reproduction devices;

· Quality material media and image.

Together with the size or capacity, the permission parameter characterizes the quality of the image itself and its suitability for solving the specified tasks.

Monitor screen resolution. The size of the monitor is measured diagonally. Unit of measurement - inches. For office or home Computer The most common are the following values: 14, 15, 17, 19, 21 inches. Since the aspect ratio of the monitor is fixed (usually 4: 3), the diagonal size characterizes the width and height of the screen.

The monitor information capacity is determined by the number of image points that can be played simultaneously on the screen. For liquid crystal (LCD) monitors, this value is constant: it is determined by the size of the matrix.

For monitors based on an electron beam tube (CRT), this value is variable: it is determined by the settings of the computer video adapter. Standard values, pixels: 640x480; 800x600; 1024x768; 1152x864; 1280x1024; 1600x1200; 1920x1440 and others. For monitors this value is called screen resolution.

Setting screen resolution

The main means for managing graphic parameters Desktop- dialog window Screen resolution (Fig.). It can be opened with the control panel: Start → Control Panel → Screen.

You can also choose in the context menu of the desktop command Screen resolution.

A set of possible permissions depends on the hardware features of the video system. If the correct video adapter and monitor drivers are installed, only correct values \u200b\u200bare available.

Screen resolution is chosen based on the conditions of comfort. Since the size of the monitor screen does not change, it can be said that individual pixels when resolving changes are becoming larger or smaller. If the resolution decreases, pixels increase. Accordingly, the elements of the image are becoming more, but less is placed on the screen - the screen capacity decreases.

With increasing permission, the information capacity of the screen increases. In modern programs there are a lot of controls. The more they are placed on the screen, the better. Therefore, when configured, select the maximum screen resolution, in which the load on sight remains within allowable limits. They depend on the state of the organs of the vision, the nature of the works and the quality of the video system devices. Approximate data for monitors are presented in Table 1.

Table 1

For liquid crystal monitors, the resolution is chosen differently. With a resolution in which the pixel of the image coincides with the element of the liquid crystal matrix, it is most convenient to work.

Sometimes you have to different programs Work in different expansion. Programs (mainly computer games) Who needs a full screen mode, you yourself specify the screen resolution at startup.

Depth of color. The value of color depth, or color resolution, indicates how many different color options can play a separate pixel. Operating system Windows 7 supports the following color modes: Hight CoLor, 24-bit color; True Color, 32-bit color.

Modern video adapters can be left under the color of 32 discharge, although there are still 24%. There are almost no difference in speed between Hight Color and True Color modes, so it does not make sense to reduce the number of colors.

Screen update frequency. The convenience of working with the computer is strongly affected by the image update frequency on the screen - frame frequency. This setting is important only for monitors with an electron beam. Before building a frame, the kinescop of the monitor returns from the bottom of the screen to the upper left corner, so sometimes they say vertical frequency. In liquid crystal monitors, this parameter cannot change.

With a low frequency of frames, the eye notes "jitter" of the image, which leads to a rapid fatigue. The minimum permissible is the frequency of 60 Hz. Long-term work at the computer is possible at the update frequency of 75 Hz and above. Comfortable work provides frequency 85 ... 100 Hz and more.

Permissible update frequencies depend on the capabilities of the monitor. In the limit modes at the update frequency close to the maximum allowable value, the image quality may fall. Sometimes there are sharp boundaries, such as lines in the letters and other symbols. In this case, the update frequency must be reduced. For some monitors, the manufacturer does not advise the maximum frequency.

All graphic mode parameters (resolution, number of colors, frame rate) can be set at the same time.

Screen resolutionthis is the number of pixels. Than them are more, the clearer image. Below in the figure shows the importance of pixels on the monitor. By fact, permission is the most important image parameter.

To calculate the diagonal of the monitor, you can use the calculator diagonal monitor in inches and centimeters.

Physical monitor resolution Present at LCD. If the content is below such permission, it must be stretched. Accordingly, it really affects the image quality.

It is believed that the picture quality depends on what distance the user looks at the monitor (and its size). They say, from a distance of 5 meters there is no difference between 4k and 1080r. In fact, if the user will look at the screen from a long distance, he will not notice a special difference. But there is one thing, but: on the far distance you will not notice small parts and the immersion effect will be low.

To calculate the size of the laptop screen, you can use the laptop screen size calculator in inches and centimeters.

In fact, none of us will use the smartphone or read the book at a distance of an elongated arm, and there is no willing picture from a long distance either. In the cinema, the immersion effect provides the overall screen and multichannel sound.

The most important advantage is 4k monitor permissions: Ability to sit closer to the screen, besides, the screen itself can be more and about huge pixels do not break your eyes. Thus, the immersion effect will increase, as well as you can consider the small details to consider it. And the image itself will be realistic.

Alas, the TV user does not always be closer to move your sofa to the monitor. However, the problem with the TV is solved by purchase larger screen. Computer monitors have no such difficulties, that's why great permits on monitors Very claimed.

Additional advantages of high monitor resolution.

A large number of pixels on the monitor guarantees a realistic image and reduces eye fatigue.

Is it necessary to buy 4K TV? What are the advantages of 4k in content 1080r?

In order to fully enjoy 4k you need:

• first, accurately measure the distance to the screen and buy the corresponding panel dimensions;
• secondly, lay 4k content. For games, this is only a PC with 2 GPUs from GTX970.

The quality of the 1080r image directly depends on the quality of the apskale. But one indisputable advantage is that the screen pixels will be invisible.

Do I need to buy a screen with a resolution of 4k?

It is necessary, because the more - the better! The recommended diagonal of the 4K monitor is 32 or more.

For one GPU will be enough and 1440r. However, if you are pretty close to the monitor, then permissible and 27-28 "4k.

Proposed above Screen resolution in 1440r Quite interesting. From a distance of 90 cm pixel on 34 monitor is not viewed. The eyes practically do not get tired and the picture itself is much clearer. Details of modern games (for example, Witcher 3) is now higher than 1080p, and small objects are quite clearly drawn.

4k monitors possess one rather lack of disadvantage - for such big permissionon optimized games, the text is very small. And as a result:

It is said that anti-aliasing is not required in 4k. It all depends on the diagonal of the monitor, if in 22 "4K smoothing is not necessary, then in 27+ 4K AA will be very useful, although in 4k the ladder is much less than in 1080p.

For 4K, it is usually enough 2x aa, in order to finally get rid of the ladder, although some say that without AA, they do not specifically see the ladder in 4k. To fully get rid of the ladder at 1440r, you need 4x, but most of enough and 2x. The need for AA largely depends on the game, in some games of the ladder, they are much more striking.

What is important when choosing a monitor and tv besides permission?

To calculate the diagonal of the TV, you can use the calculator of the diagonal of the TV in inches and centimeters.

Do not go on marketing. As it turns out in practice 120 + Hz TV is only 60Hz with inserts of black frames. And HDMI 2.0 and DP1.2 are not capable of 120Hz in 4K.

In this way, great permit It is always good. After all, low permission has practically no advantages except low requirements for system resources. Competently pick a diagonal when buying 4K, depending on the distance distance: picture
