Why Do My Display Icons Look Pixelated?
Asked by
TechWhiz420
I've got an LG Ultragear 27-inch monitor with a 165 Hz refresh rate paired with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600, 16 GB of RAM, and an Nvidia RTX 2060 Super. Lately, I've noticed that my desktop icons and in-game graphics look a bit pixelated and aren't as sharp as they should be. What can I do to fix this issue?
Answers
If your monitor is indeed 1440p, unfortunately, that could mean the DPI isn't high enough for such a size, leading to the pixelation issue. A lot of people suggest upgrading to a 27-inch 4K monitor for sharper graphics and text. But keep in mind that you can always adjust your game's resolution lower for better performance, and it’ll still look good with 4K content.

First off, what's the resolution of your monitor? Knowing this will help us pinpoint the problem better. If it's running at 1080p, that could explain the pixelation on a 27-inch screen. You might want to check if you're actually set to the right resolution in your display settings!
TechWhiz420: It's 1080p.
