I assume the OP has set Windows to the correct monitor resolution et al. Since Microsoft has jettisoned all PCs not made in the last 3 years going forward their not supporting older icons and programs that don't scale is a no-brainer, a la macOS cutting out 32 bit apps (well that was just Apple being Apple).įiddle with the Windows scaling settings until your boat is floated. It took Adobe forever to make their menus scale in 4k in Windows, which should never have been a problem had PS been properly coded to begin with, but I digress. I never understood why Microsoft refuses to go 21st century and fix scaling. Same scaling but with the benefits of the higher resolution monitor automatically applied. Not a fan of macOS but there just aren't any scaling issues. One of the few advantages in macOS is that the WinXP era taskbar can scale usefully on higher resolution monitors, a wonder to behold. The taskbar can only be scaled a bit for 1440 and 4k because of that. Windows icons are still not vector based so the more you scale the uglier it looks. Windows 10/11 scaling applies mainly to desktop text and icons, a bit to the taskbar. I've been using 27inch 4k panels for a long time. Not sure the OP is not overthinking this. I know it depends on eyes and preference, but I'm curious what scaling settings others are using for their 27" QHD screens? If I wanted to get the equivalent 94.34 of my old screen, I think I'd need to scale my new one to about 115% (if all my math is right). At 120, I'm getting 90.66 dpi which is actually slightly lower than my 24" screen, although I think it looks OK. I'm finding I prefer 120% better than 125%. Am I going to run into issues if I use this? I did find the advanced scaling options, but windows warns this is not recommended. However, the dropdowns only go in 25% increments. If I scale my new screen to 125%, my equivalent dpi would be 108.79/1.25 = 87.03? IMO, 125% scaling is a bit too big for a 27" 1440 monitor. Not sure, I'm doing the math right, but I think this is how it works. I was expecting a change in DPI, but I feel that things are too small now with the new screen at 100% scaling, which is what windows recommends.Īccording to the calculations, I was getting 94.34 dpi with my 24" screen, and now I'm getting 108.79. I just upgraded from a 24" 1920x1200 monitor to a 27" 1440 screen.
