I notice pixels on a 1080p 24 inch monitor

VirtualBlack

I sit at a reasonable distance (50cm) from the monitor but i still notice individual pixels in solid colors (specially blue) for example, in the default windows 10 wallpaper, (the blue one)

Also in text i can see a red border around the letter, i am very dissapointed becasue in many forums eveyone says that 24 inch is the sweetpot for 1080p, i upgraded from a 21 inch 1080p monitor so maybe i get used to that pixel density

Cleartype is improperly configured.

I configured Cleartype and improved but still the text is not sharp enough

If you want "clear" text, disable Cleartype.  The resulting text is so sharp it will cut you.

But supposely ClearType is to make the text sharper, isn´t it?

No, its just anti-aliasing for text.  Think of it as a blur filter so you dont see the sharp edges of the fonts.

Everyone's viewing situation is a bit different.

If you can see the pixels, that's totally credible.

You can either keep your monitor and live with it, or buy another monitor with a higher PPI count.

Depending on what kind of work you do and what size screen you prefer, your preferences on an upgrade might vary wildly from someone else's. Use a PPI calculator when you're shopping around different panels to make sure you're not buying more of the same thing.

Best of luck!
