Which version of F4 is this? BMS? I had a look around their forums and didn't find anything related, at least not yet. If it's BMS perhaps the answer is in the config utility? Wrong output, bordered windowed mode, that sort of thing.

I must admit I don't really understand what you're saying here...
1. Falcon will force your monitor into a lower resolution (1024x768 IIRC) when playing in fullscreen mode, but it will go back to your default resolution once in the 3D cockpit.
2. Have you set your correct monitor resolution under Setup -> Graphics -> Resolution?
3. How do you know it's not displaying over 640x480?

Found that because im using multiple monitors it will not go to the larger res in the 3d screen, I had to go to window borderless to make it run at 1080 otherwise it will only display 640x480 in 3d.

That should not be the case. I have 5 screens... 2 at 1920x1080 and then three combined for a total res of 5896x1080 (bezel corrected). I fly BMS in fullscreen mode.

980Ti.

What settings are you using? Maybe best to provide a screenshot of your Configuration settings and in-game settings. This is how I have mine set up:

Thanks guys! I've been improving my setup so that I'll have an easy and great time flying but I've come to realize now that I spend more time fiddling around with settings and stuff than I do flying... I hope to turn that around soon!

Here's my pit in the cold-and-dark state:

I'm just a bit worried that the base of his side monitors is extending WAY past the table edge. One gentle nudge...

Overkill in the secure placement of expensive electronics is a safe mindset to have.

A quick shot of my pit in action... well, more like "at work" as I was just practicing AAR so very little "action" going on....
