Running at 4K resolution on a 1080p display is possible but may require optimization for smooth performance.

You're experiencing issues because your monitor doesn't actually support 4K resolution, yet the game tries to force it. This mismatch can cause crashes since the graphics card or system isn't ready for higher resolutions. The crash happens even though the visuals appear smoother, likely due to instability at that setting.
Yes, you can check if DSR is enabled in the Nvidia control panel by navigating to the system settings and looking for the display resolution or graphics options.
Absolutely, it's using high sampling rates. I'll convert the 4K resolution down to fit your screen.
There might be several factors contributing to your game crashing despite a weaker PC, unless it falls well below the required specifications. I've heard reports of issues since the game's release, which could point to a problem specific to your system. It shouldn't be a concern if the game runs at 4K on a 1080p display. For details on why it ran at 4K on a 1080p screen, check the GeForce website. While I'm not aware of it being enabled by default, it's possible Nvidia changed this setting recently. If you don't need it, you can skip extra resolutions or adjust the settings in NVCP to disable DSR. To turn it off, navigate to "Manage 3D settings" in NVCP and set "DSR Factors" to off.
