Yeah, I'm using the Toshiba HDTV screen now, cuz my other 19inch monitor broke.. and guys, the text doesn't look as sharp as I want it to.

 

Soo.... what to do? ^^...

 

Text isn't that sharp.. and games... well uhh.. dunno. but Movies look very crispy and clear. and games? perhaps? not too sure cuz I am not used to 60Hz, looks dummy... I am more used to 75Hz.

 

I am running HDMI.. No other alternative. it just doesn't look 1080pish to me. :[

What is the resolution setting in Nvidia control panel? The resolution should say 1080p and have a little (native) tag next to it.

Well. If it's a 32 inch screen or higher 1080 does look like shit on those from a monitor type distance.

Is there a 'sharpness' value you can change on the TV's display menu?

My samsung TV has it (if turned all the way down, it will look kind of blurry)

In my case, a Prestiz 32" 1080p HDTV (yes, it's not a known brand), turning down the sharpness actually helped make the text readable...

Cus it's a TV what else do you expect: These types of comments annoy me -  I just bought a 55" TV & everything is perfect for PC

Infact i prefer it over a small monitor any day . You just need to get the right 1 to do it ,infact check this out:

 

http://www.displaylag.com/display-database/

 

The site works on how good a TV is vs the lag some if not most will bring...

The best way for any any 1 can shed a helping hand is if you can provide some info

about the TV you just got .

(note my old TV 42" = 6.5ms input lag) follow that site it will help you .

 

Now with the sharpness issue you are having ,change the DPI: setting to a larger setting this can be found ,like so.

Right click on desktop - personalise - Display ,now you can change a setting . Good luck and do get back to us .
