XFX GTX260 issue.

Hi folks.I just got hold of a XFX GTX260 Black Edition and I have a very annoying problem.The image seem blurry no matter what refresh rate I select and this happens in games aswell.So got any ideas on what it could be?

 

[lemzip]

have you set it to the native res for your monitor? try that and see if that fixes the blurryness

 

[Ast3r]

Yup tried that still blurry.

You are connected by using a DVI to DVI cable and not a VGA cable ???

Plus what monitor and res are you using ??

 

[Ast3r]

I'm using a 17" Philips LCD and yes the cable is a VGA one and I use the DVI-VGA adapter.

Using a VGA cable is most likely your problem....

Does your 17" Philips LCD have a DVI input ??

 

[Ast3r]

Unfortunately no.

I have no problem running any of my LCDs - including a 2048x res one - off VGA - sure DVI looks a little more crisp but you wouldn't call the image on VGA blurry.

Its possible its not actually using native res even tho it says it is - does the OSD menu on the panel show the resolution the display is running at?

Also have a look here in the nvidia control panel...and check which scaling option is ticked..

In the OSD it shows 1280x1024@75 .And I tried that thing in the nvidia control panel but the only problem is that for me it doesn't show those options.It only shows something about changing the position of the screen.
