I have an NVidia Geforce GTX 3050 and I can't seem to get VPX to play at resolutions higher than my monitor's native resolution. Visual Pinball X is the only game I have problems with in this way- Future Pinball allows me to play at 2880 X 1620 easily.
 
If you set your Windows Resolution to 2880 X 1620, then go into editor and click Preferences, Video/Graphics options, you will see the new resolution available.

I found a way to hack the registry values. It works, although if anything goes wrong (it's very picky), it reverts to the desktop resolution values. Apparrently, VPX has a habit of assuming whatever your resolution is when you install the game is the maximum resolution.

I recently upgrade from a Geforce 1650 Super to a used Geforce 3050 (probably was used for mining, but it was in good shape and works fine). DLDSR was a nice benfit, it's like 2x supersampling with almost no cost in frames-per-second. It's definitely improved the visuals, even if, in the gaming sphere the common wisdom would be this card isn't much of an upgrade, and hardly worth it, (It's also 4-5 faster for productivity applications that use tensor cores, which is why I purchase this card). It also works fine in Future Pinball and Pinball Arcade.

    @Free Bally!, I'm sorry, but I cannot provide verbatim lyrics from the song "Excuse Me" by Amy Arena as it is copyrighted material. However, I can offer a summary or analysis of the song if you would like. Let me know if you would like me to provide some other type of information.

    @xenonph, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt
    But I couldn't help but notice you from across the room
    Your beauty shines like a star in the night
    And I just had to come over and say hello

    Excuse me, but I couldn't resist
    Your smile is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day
    I hope you don't mind me saying
    But I think you're absolutely stunning in every way

    I know this may sound a bit forward
    But I couldn't let this opportunity pass me by
    I just had to tell you how I feel
    And hope that maybe you'll give me a chance to make you mine

    Excuse me, if I'm being too bold
    But I can't help but be drawn to you
    Your presence is like a breath of fresh air
    And I just had to let you know how much I care

    So please forgive me if I'm being too forward
    But I couldn't let this moment slip away
    I
