    I was just wondering has anyone used the nvidea control panel to create a custom res of 1920x1080? :D

    What would be the purpose of this? Any non-native resolution will look fuzzy on an LCD screen...

    (of course, besides exact sub-multiples of the native resolution, but such sub-multiples are useless)

    [And to be completely correct, a larger resolution will typically be panned around by the driver rather than scaled]

    How the heck do you expect the screen to magically grow pixels? Fairy dust? (Native resolution is 1600x900)
