    I got win 7 pro RTM x64 installed on my computer... I am using the catalyst 9.8 beta drivers and outputting via hdmi to my 46" samsung... the highest resolution of my notebooks panel is 1366x768... my problem is anything higher than that resolution on my tv as a single display text looks like absolute crap on my display... the colors seem a bit off and the text looks very blocky even when zooming in... anyone heard of a problem like this or know where to fix it within windows?

    Both screenshots look fine. You need to be sure to use the resolution native to the display and everything will be fine. Next time, post thumbnails instead of the actual picture.

    i realized the bad screenshot of 1080p looks good in 768 but when I switch back it goes to looking awful, it has to be some setting... also it looks completely fine using VGA

    fixed the problem... I had to turn sharpness down to 0 from 50 and set dynamic range to 0 and it looks great
