## Display Options

* Window Mode:Choose from fullscreen and windowed options. Requires confirmation
* Select Monitor
* Resolution
* Rendering Resolution
* Anti-Aliasing Mode:Anti-aliasing improves the visual appearance of object edges and the overall quality of the image
* Upscale Type:Upscale technologies provide high resolution frames from lower resolution inputs. This can significantly improve performance. Some upscale technologies may not be available on your device
* Upscale Mode:The upscale mode determines the resolution at which the frames are rendered. Quality modes render at a higher resolution, while Performance modes run at a higher framerate at the cost of image quality
* Upscale Sharpness:Control the amount of sharpness applied to the visuals which have be downscaled by the chosen rendering resolution
* Frame Generation:If supported by your graphics card, this setting may also be disabled because NVIDIA DLSS isn't enabled, or because Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling isn't enabled in Windows Graphics Settings
* NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency:NVIDIA Reflex is used to reduce system latency which increases PC responsiveness
* VSYNC:Enabling vertical sync will force the graphics card to operate at a rate no higher than the monitor's refresh rate
* Framerate:Select the maximum frame rate cap. A lower framerate may reduce stuttering
* HDR
* Image Calibration:Adjust brightness or HDR parameters
* Field of View:Use the slider to widen or narrow the camera's field of view
