Hello!
I have just installed new Graphics card ( Dataland RX 560 4G X-serial war ) after that i also installed AMD driver but display looks terrible resolution is ok but colors they look like borderlands graphics
 


make sure to set native resolution and color depth of your monitor


right click the desktop


screen resolution > advanced settings > monitor > colors


also make sure the refresh rate is set to monitor native
 


resolution and refresh rate is native but i dont know about color depth
I tried playing with AMD display settings to fix that but its not helping
I am using windows 10

 
Some HDMI displays tend to be treated as TVs by the display driver and are subjected to Chroma sub sampling issues.

If you're using a TV as your display, you need to ensure the input is set as 1:1, Dot-by-Dot, DVI-PC, or whatever the manufacturer of the TV specifies to give you a raw HDMI input.

In your graphics card's control panel, ideally you want to set the output to RGB 4:4:4 pixel format or better.
 


make and model of your monitor?
 


Yes! I am using TV. I have set output to RGB 4:4:4 but i dont really know how to set input to 1:1

My TV model is: philips 221te2l

 


Philips 221te2l
 
I am not sure how can i explain this problem all colors look ugly black colors have white glow although resolution is 1080P it still looks pixalated nothing is softened
 


1080p 32-bit color, is it set to 32-bit colors?

are you using HDMI?
 


Yes today i got New HDMI its set to 1080P but i dont know how to check if its 32-bit
 


i posted how already, read my previous post



right click the desktop


screen resolution > advanced settings > monitor > colors
 


yeah that wasnt working for me as my settings are different but i was trying to find that and i think i found it but still can see that colors setting here is screenshot https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/215008064829521921/346039335558184962/unknown.png

 
The only possible section I can find in the manual for your TV is on page 21:

Philips Manual - Page 21

I would cycle through available options for both the Wide mode and HDMI overscan settings. One of those might give you a 1:1 pixel output on the display. Setting your TV for 1:1 will likely fix the problem, if you can, but some TVs actually lack the ability to perform 1:1 digital output, making them poorly suited for use as a PC display. Never having tried with the Philips brand, I really can't say with any certainty about your model.
 


yeah i tried that settings but they dont help before i was using GTX 650 1GB with VGA on this monitor and it had
0 problem
 
That's because VGA inputs on TV's are always considered and treated as 1:1 inputs to the display's output. HDMI is still subject to the idiocy of over scan. The drawback to VGA is that it's analog.

As a last resort, you could try forcing the graphics card driver to output using DVI mode. The biggest downside to this is you lose HDMI audio through your HDMI because, well, that's just the way AMD programed their drivers to behave. I have to do this with one of my TVs that AMD keeps identifying as a TV, not as a DVI device. The other downside is it requires you to jump through some hoops to install an unsigned .inf file for the Monitor device in Device Manager.
 


so if I get HDMI to VGA adapter will that help?
 


well i am not sure if it will be visible but if i take a picture of my screen tomorrow can you surly tell me if it is Chroma sub sampling issue

 




i tried that test so beside all colors look ugly there is very small blur on Red on black and pretty good blur on Blue on Black and also Red on Blue and Blue on Red are hardly visible everything else is ok

here is picture of it https://ibb.co/dHX1sF

 


well i dont really care about HDMI audio as i have speakers anyway so how can i force it to output using DVI mode?

 


so which adapter or cable can help me i think I will be able to get anything for less than 10$
