    Please help. Just got my screen today. Anyone can give me any pointers example when on 2560x1080 the writing seems a bit blurry.

    Whoever got this screen what did you do to suit your needs. Thanks any help would be appreciated.

    Hey man

    I've got a couple of them but no issues here with blurry writing, I'm using dvi on one and dp on the other.

    Have you reset to factory defaults and made sure you're at the right resolution, I can take a screenshot later when I'm in the office of a text document or a browser page so you can compare of you want

    I've got one connected to a EVGA GTX 770 via DP, it had a problem with not being able to display 2560*1080 properly so got blurry text aswel. Driver update solved that

    Thanks bud, when I'm at 1920x1080 I have no problems it looks but put it at 16:9. When at 21:9 it looks a bit stretch.
    The minute I put it at 2560x1080 just doesn't look sharp at all

    You may have missed Aeidus post above about a driver update as it was in the moderation queue - maybe worth a thought?

    I bet you have it on some weird screen mode. Go into the options and put it in 1:1 pixel scaling.

    Done all of the above no luck. Will have to keep it at 1920 x 1080 and read further
