We would definitely set one of the shortcuts to activate the cool and useful GamePlus feature. Unfortunately, it crushes detail in the process and is better left off.

Turned on, it’s fairly aggressive at lowering black levels and raising white levels.

Gaming seems to be a better application for VividPixel, where perceived sharpness can be improved if used sparingly.ĪSCR is a dynamic contrast control. Turning the feature down to zero solved the problem and image clarity was better without it. Small text in Windows demonstrates obvious white outlines, which reduce resolution. The default setting is the lowest of the four available. When we tried VividPixel, it looked to us like another form of edge enhancement (Asus says it enhances image outlines). If your video player software handles screen sizing properly, there should be no need to change Aspect Control from Full. The 4:3 option mimics the old square aspect of CRT TVs and monitors. Overscan zooms in 1.5 percent to remove artifacts from the edges of the image if they're there. Choosing 1:1 maps each input pixel to the screen, meaning that resolutions below 3840x2160 are shown windowed. Full uses the entire screen, regardless of input resolution. Or, it can be turned off completely.Īspect Control has Full, 4:3, 1:1, and Overscan options. Trace Free is Asus’ version of overdrive and can help clean up ghosting artifacts that sometimes appear behind fast-moving objects. We prefer to avoid the feature, though some users like the impression of added clarity (even though it actually reduces image resolution). Sharpness adds edge enhancement to high-contrast areas of the image. Image has five more picture enhancements available.
