in Monitors
Hello, i bought R271 monitor as a second screen to watch youtube and do all those less important tasks. I have VGA>DVI adapter to get it connected with GTX 1050. Problem is that the screen is very glitchy. It's blurry with very low quality and sometimes has other hiccups. I updated GTX drivers and monitor drivers, checked if cables are properly connected and monitor refresh rate is set the same in Windows settings. Any help please?

    Could be a bad adapter or bad cable, that's not all that unusual to have one of the other being glitchy.

    Somehow it fixed itself when i was switching between monitor profiles, finally the glitches got VHS-tier bad and suddenly it all disappeared. No idea how or why but it worked.

    Heheh, at least it is working, even if we have no idea why. :)
