Boot screen resolution is bad

[cincinnatus95]

Hello, everyone. I have just built a new PC and am currently setting it up. When the PC is booting up, the boot logo and loading icon appear pixelated and large, almost as if the computer is using the wrong screen resolution on startup. The screen resolution is also off in the bios itself. The screen resolution returns to normal once the PC reaches the lock screen and desktop (2560x1440). I have updated the bios, edited the boot logo, fast boot, and CSM settings in the bios, removed and reset CMOS, updated my graphics drivers for both the DGPU and IGPU, and checked my resolution settings. Any recommendations are welcome and thank you in advance. 

 

Motherboard   - NZXT N7 B650E

CPU - Ryzen 9900x

GPU - RTX 4070 Super

Monitor - LG Ultragear 27GR75Q-B

Most likely this is perfectly normal.  In my experience, boot resolution can be a bit unpredictable.

The pictures seem to be perfectly normal to me. I think the boot screen uses a lower resolution for enhanced compatibility but the NZXT logo seems really readable to me.

Do you have problems reading the text while in BIOS ? If it is readable, then there isn't really a problem. If the text is unreadable, that's another matter.

You can also check if your 1440p monitor has support for lower resolutions like 800x600. It may be the image processing to another resolution that makes your display look wrong at boot time. I don't know if you can force it to another resolution unless there is a BIOS update that addresses that topic.

Good luck !
