I am using a monitor which has a native 1366*768 resolution. When I tried to changed the resolution to 1920*1080p, the texts became blurry.

My question is, is it possible to make the display clear just like when using the native resolution?
 
Solution


The blur is caused by your computer using techniques to fake a higher resolution on your monitor to not have this blur you would need to run at the native resolution. A better solution is to get a monitor with a higher dot pitch than your current one but obviously this costs money but it is the only true solution to the issue at hand.

Otherwise trying to fake having 2 million pixels (1920x1080) with 1 million pixels doesn't work to well and will cause that bluring effect as each pixel on your monitor is trying to display what would normally be displayed in 2 pixels.


Why would you want that high of a resolution? The monitor doesn't support it, you should only use resolutions it supports. Even if it isn't blurry, you won't see a difference.
 


I just want a smaller mouse pointers, fonts, and stuff... :-/ but thank you though :)

[strike]Windows 10: Right click on desktop > Display Settings > Scaling > There's an option called "Custom scaling".
I don't think this function is available on Windows 7.[/strike]
EDIT: It doesn't go lower than 100% on Windows 10 too.
