As title says, my new monitor that I just got yesterday is kind of blurry. My last monitor, an HP Envy 32 which I got 2 years ago for $200 less had crystal clear 1440p graphics with 0 aliasing in game. This monitor has jagged textures and slightly blurry images, and I see no option or way to adjust sharpness. Antialiasing is turned off, anisotropic filtering is on, I have calibrated the available settings the best I can on the osd and nvcp. The only thing I am thinking of is could running this monitor in 165 hz at 1440p degrade the quality? I am using a display port 1.2. Lastly, is there any way to adjust the sharpness of this montor? Like with nvidia inspector or something? I cant find a way. Did I just get a bad monitor? My HP envy was a VA display, and this is an IPS, which I thought were supposed to be even better looking. 

 

thanks,
