Hello guys,I have a problem. I installes today completly new windows 10 pro 64 bit and updated it immediately. I have finally builded my PC I have bought new RAMs,motherboard and graphic card. After installing all drivers for completly new graphic card and motherboard,my image quality is really poor. Even tho I bought a new cable because my monitor is Acer,so I bought DVI-to-VGa (DVI goes in a graphic card while vga goes into th monitor). My image quality on 1920x1080 is really bad and low like it is blurry or something. Color which should be black on windows toolbar is not black it is something like brown.. I reinstalled my drivers and everything what should I do next?

Specs:
ASRock AMD 970 pro3 r2.0
AMD X8 8350 octa core
HyperX Fusion 8gb RAM
Gainward GTX 1050Ti 4gb
Windows 10 Pro

DVI is digital signal and VGA is old analog signal. It needs to be converted and will lose quality. But if it is that bad, maybe the converter is just bad. I recommend you to connect to monitor through HDMI, if you don't have DVI on the monitor. VGA is just fallback option, especially with such a converter. Try HDMI.
