I'm aware the photo quality isn't superb. The difference is a bit more noticeable on my screen. Shell icons aren't affected by this, which is why I had Explorer pinned on both screens. APasz said that the thumbnail gets loaded and enlarged when running a higher DPI. This makes sense, so I tried setting the default thumbnail size to 48x48 in the registry but had no luck. I have a theory about it loading the 100% DPI version of the icon and scaling it up, since my Firefox only has 48x48, 32x32 and 16x16 versions; the two latter ones being way too small to apply here. I'm not entirely sure how Windows derives a thumbnail; hoping you would explain just that for me. It can't get one from the 32x32/16x16 ones, afaik. Scrolling with my mousewheel on the desktop until I get a matching shortcut makes it slightly more grainy than its pinned counterpart, but still less grainy than its unpinned one. 48x48 and pinned. 48x48 and unpinned. Desktop shortcut still looks a bit more faded in comparison, though. I'm running native res., ClearText is calibrated and sharpness on my monitor has no influence. Clearing icon cache and thumbnail cache has no effect. I noticed that on all three variations of icon sizes (small, stock W10 and enlarged by StartIsBack++, aka W7 style) the icons got pixellated when not pinned. Only by changing back to 100% DPI can I resolve my issue. I accept the fact that I have to live with this until MS decides to cater to us with Hugh Mungus screens. It predominantly affects me on my second monitor anyways.

I am using 125% DPI scaling. Windows scales icons on the taskbar differently when they are pinned to it, and, in some cases just by being on another monitor. By difference I mean grainy. Unpinned. Pinned I've tried every icon size from 45x45 to 55x55 (48x48 default with enlarged taskbar icons (StartIsBack++)) using Resource Hacker, to get it to match. No luck so far. Windows10 DPI Fix won't work either. Certain icons, such as Logitech Gaming Software looks fine until I pin and unpin it again.

Hi. I have an Asrock Z97 Extreme6 which supports: 2 x 3-pin fans 1 x 4-pin fan The 3-pin power fan and 3-pin CPU fan connectors are open. I plan on having 1 stock fan and my 120mm TS13X AIO CPU water cooler (35dBA, 2200rpm max) in the front, 1 stock in the back, 1 fan in the middle bottom. Would this create positive airflow, given that the stock fans (1 front 1 back) are set to max and the bottom fan (exhaust) is a PWM fan? I intend to make the build as silent as possible and am wondering if it's worth it to replace the 2 x 140mm Fractal Design Dynamic GP-14 stock fans (18.9dBA, 1000rpm max), which seem pretty slick as is, for something along the lines of the Noctua NF-A15 PWM. Using PWM for more than 1 fan would require me to get a splitter. I removed all of the drive bays, and my best bet seems to be mounting my 3.5" HDD freely in the bottom right space, since I only have one drive taking up space. If anyone has any tips on how to create a small stand or just screwing it in place in a convenient location, let me know.
