Help! My monitor is showing weird stuff

[Ash Champ]

Hello,

im not a very tech savvy person but my 1440Hz HP 27xq shows weird clouds every time there is a gradient on the screen for example I attached a picture of the Netflix shadow on my monitor and one on my MacBook.  The MacBook one is very clear and the edges of the shadow is crisp but on my monitor the shadow is surrounded by something. Please help my monitor out. Thanks

Did you make sure that the cable is hooked up properly with the monitor?

 

If it is, try a different cable with the monitor and a different computer with the monitor.

I connected the monitor to my computer which is a lot plumper powerful and I used the HDMI cable that came with the monitor this time
