Query re resolution setting in DCS options

[markturner1960]

Does it really matter what "screen resolution you choose in the DCS options for your VR preset? I ask as my main monitor is a 5120 x 1440 alongside my winwing MP1 which adds 3 screens. These are always connected and detected by windows, I cant turn them off without messing with my display settings,and if I choose anything other than that. If I choose any other resolution other than the main monitor native, I get issues with application windows rendering off the main monitor and I cant click on them etc. However, am I loosing valuable performance overhead by this? 

I have tried various settings and it appears to make zero difference to the "VR" DCS rendered on my monitor while in VR.....in fact , while I think of it, why do we even need that at all when VR is running? Can you turn it off?

I have never found any appreciable difference in performance based upon the resolution of the 2d mirror being similar or smaller than the VR image ... I have a 1440p monitor. YMMV

Do you know of any way to turn it off?

no but you could change the size of the mirror, in my tests it never made any difference to performance
