Post Body

Greetings,

I have a desktop with a 16:10 monitor that goes up to 1440x900 resolution. I have a 1660Ti that enables me to go even double the resolution, hence I can go up to 2880x1800. But I want to get a 1920x1080 resolution to record some games. This I'm not able to achieve.

I can achieve 16:9 resolutions that are smaller than 1440x900, i.e., 1366x786 or 1280x720. But even if I get those, the display gets stretched. The next best thing would be these resolutions but not stretched,I'd better have black bars.

Is it possible to achieve what I want here?
