As you might know or not, pixel resolution on TFT screens mostly depends
on the make and not the measure. Your TFT might actually have only
1024x768 active pixels if you bought a cheap R51 variant, so that there
would be no point in trying a higher resultion. Please consult your data
sheets and/or manual to look up the actual TFT pixel count and report
it.
