Personaly I do not use additional processing (sharpening) at all. I use NGU AA for SD and Standard for 720p. And very satisfied.
For 1080 -> 2160 I would like to use NGU Sharp. I did this for the 2160 screen. But my screen is now 1080.

For 2160 -> 1080, a sharp algorithm is also enough for me. This is how I watch my favorite movies. madVR gives me an advantage over 1080 blu-ray. For example, Dune 4K old/new, Jaws 4K, Predator 4K, Alien 4K, the Thing 4K, The Hobbit 4K and others. Also Doom 4K and RE2 4K are actualy "upscaled-4k" but look much better.
The only time I'm really disappointed is Monster Hunter 4K. The result is too dim even with 100nits. 1080 blu-ray is much better, but maybe it's not madVR's fault, I don't know.
