DWM on Windows 11 has been improved. Latency between fullscreen and borderless windowed is similar in most games.

before attempting to use a custom resolution you will need to apply the custom resolution with your GPU driver software ~ See Guide

For games requiring borderless windowed mode for stretched fullscreen resolutions, I use nircmd scripts to quickly switch resolutions before launching specific games. I find 1600x1024 (16:10) strikes a good balance—offering stretch without overdoing it, while still feeling natural when switching back to 16:9. While 1728x1080 (16:10) is sharper, the difference is minimal, and 1600x1024 provides better frame rate consistency. For a stronger stretch, 1440x1080 (4:3) and 1400x1050 (4:3) are excellent options, with the latter offering a slightly less intense stretch.

To use nircmd launch it with GlazeWM shortcut ALT+shift+m ~ See GlazeWM Config
