DPI/Monitor Scaling Windows 10

iDeJayDzn

So ive just got a new monitor which is 1440p

My other monitor that is also connected is a 1080p.

I did have two 1080s connected and this would be the third to connect. The other is currently not plugged in as i need a longer display port cable which is fair enough.

My issue however is windows scaling. 
My 1440p was set to 1440p with 125% scaling which made it look perfect. However in doing so my other monitor's text now looks blurry.

Not only is nearly everything blurry but chrome seems to also get a different scale than what it used to have.

The scale on the 1080 is still set to 100% so i dont understand why its even changed.

Not only that but somehow the font has changed on windows to a slightly different one.

Screen capping both screens doesnt seem to resembile a difference but in person you can tell a difference. 

I have no idea what is going on or how to fix it but i kinda need it doing.

Ive tried disabling dpi on chrome and re-enabling but it doesnt set it back to normal.

Tried scaling both to 125% in custom and even 120%, same results. 

Regular scaling of 125% and 100% on the 1080, same result.

 

Anyone got any ideas as Windows 10 seems to just not allow you to sort this issue out??

 

This is legit the weirdest bug i have ever run into.
