Hi Guys Hope you can help me. I’m new to Zwift on PC (was using iOS previously), and just getting set-up. I’ve taken delivery on a new Dell XPS 8920 and a 4K screen. I thought this PC would be easily enough spec to power 4K resolution, but the highest setting i’m seeing in Zwift is 1080. Is there something I should be doing to push it into / select 4K mode? **PC spec is -** Intel Core i5-7400 3.00GHz 8 GB RAM 2 TB HDD + SSD NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB Graphics Card 64-bit Windows 10 Home It’s a clean machine, no other programs or apps running, except for operating system stuff. Any help really appreciated :o) Michael ---

I’ve got a similar spec machine with a NVidia GTX 1050 graphics card and I can run Zwift in a high resolution than this. I found that the secret was to tell NVidia software to use the GTX card instead of the in-built Intel graphics card when running Zwift, and this unlocked the extra resolutions. The option is available in the NVidia control panel. Do a quick Google search for “Zwift Nvidia settings” to find a few parameters to tweak too.   ---

Hiya It turns out I didn’t need to change any settings, I had put the cable into the motherboard HDMI port, rather than the GTX graphics card HDMI port … silly me. Your reply did make me wonder whether i’d done that. Doh. Moved it over, and hey presto, I got Ultra and 4K options appear automatically in Zwift. 4K detail is amazing. Thanks again Michael
