Poor Resolution of materials in viewport

Does anyone know how improve the resolutions of the textures in the viewport, because it would greatly help modeling if i could line up models with bitmaps, but the low resolution that it gives without rendering makes it very difficult. It would greatly help if there was a way that i could make a reference texture that showed up in the viewport at its original resolution.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

right click the viewport name and click "Texture Correction"
it greatly decreases system performance... but it'll do what you're asking it to do.

but if it's the background, it will stay stationary when you move your model, because you're bound to zoom in on parts of the model for details, etc. i prefer creating a plane of the dimensoins of the bitmap, applying the bitmap to it, and using alt+x to make the model you're making transparent.

not if you click match bitmap and lock pan/zoom
