Overview
Resolution scaling maintains aspect ratio when changing resolution. Essential for gaming performance, video encoding, and responsive design. Common scales: 1080p, 1440p, 4K.

Pro Tips
Reducing scale is the single most effective way to gain FPS (frames per second) in demanding games.
Scaling below 70% usually results in significant blurriness unless using advanced techniques like DLSS or FSR.
Rendering above 100% (Supersampling) is the highest form of anti-aliasing but is extremely taxing on hardware.
Modern upscalers (DLSS, FSR, XeSS) use AI and temporal data to make a low-scale image look nearly native.
