I have a 1440p display, I can get the bootloader to load at full resolution if I turn CSM off but then my computer can't boot into windows (on my main drive, I boot into OSX using F12), anyone know a way I can get full resolution without this or a way to get bios to load into windows without CSM?

Windows installed in UEFI mode shouldn't need CSM, unless you're still on Windows 7 where some drivers may still need it. Did you install Windows in legacy mode?

I could of sworn I installed it in UEFI but I guess it installed in legacy because thats the only thing that would explain windows not booting with CSM off.
 
"CsmVideoDxe-64.efi" should be able to do what your motherboard's CSM isn't capable off. The cleanest solution would be disabling CSM though.
Ok I downloaded it and put it in the drivers64UEFI folder but that just made my resolution worse, where can i edit the resolution that this will display. Changing the resolution in the GUI section of clover configurator didn't work.

Try enabling the PatchVbios setting in Clover together with CsmVideoDxe

I already had it enabled and that didn't work. I ended up just changing my windows MBR to UEFI so that I could disable CSM and be able to dual boot and get the full resolution.
