math is magical
Hi guys I'm having a problem with the monitor I just bought a couple days ago. It has blurry/fuzzy words every couple lines and I'm not sure why. Here is a pic I snapped to show the fuzziness: i.imgur.com/aqHzx.png

Also here is the newegg page of the monitor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236153&Tpk=N82E16824236153

Any idea why this is happening and how I can fix it would be greatly appreciated.

You're connected via HDMI, right? Turn off overscan both on the GPU and through the monitor's on-screen display controls.

How would I turn off overscan on my GPU? I did for the monitor. And yes, I'm connected via HDMI.

Depends on the GPU. In AMD Catalyst, it's My Digital Flat Panels -> Scaling Options, then crank the "scaling options" slider all the way to the Overscan side (I think that's it). And make sure the checkbox is unchecked.

Then make sure to set your desktop resolution to a proper 1920x1080.

I have an ATI Radeon 5770.

So unless you haven't updated driver's in a year or so, it's AMD Catalyst.

Thank you, everything is fixed now.
