sivispacem Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 No, it's fixed to the resolution of the pannel, which in your case is 1366x768 as you've already noted. The only way of getting 1080p would be to output to a 1080p monitor or buy a new laptop.

Andreaz1 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 You only have a certain amount of physical pixels in your screen. In your case it's 1366 wide by 768 high. You can't make new ones appear which is why you can't choose a resolution over 1366x768. The only thing to do is by a new screen which is impossible considering this is a laptop.

Hdxt_Hardluck Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 I thought i could overclock it, i fear it could be damged as well, hopfully i'll buy one soon, Thanks you for such explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoječ Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Well, technically you could force a 1080p resolution and downscale it to 1366x768 (nVidia drivers offer such feature, dunno about AMD and Intel), but there's no point really, especially for a laptop.

DEALUX Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 In older versions of Windows you could force your GPU to run at a higher resolution than the monitor supported but the result in your case would be tiny unreadable text since your screen can't effectively display more pixels than your current resolution.
