I've recently upgraded my PC, went from a pretty old mobo/cpu/ram combo to my current one.
I played a few games without any issues in the last few months (such as Escape from Tarkov), but the last few in particular caught my interest.
Two new games I have bought recently being Ghost Recon Wildlands and Inquisitor Martyr both give me this weird blurry, incorrectly looking vibe.
GRW in particular, because it has a very neat menu that shows the difference between every graphics settings. My games does NOT look anything like it. But I chalked it up to the game being like that.
But now I took out a game I have played two years ago, on my 1050ti nonetheless. At the same exact settings (being highest), there is the same blur, the game looks like it's lagging behind when travelling and looking at grass (despite running much higher fps than when I first played it), and there are some obviously incredibly rough edges. This game in particular (Nier Replicant) was especially memorable for me, because I remember showing some scenery to my sister, and generally just going somewhere and chilling at places as a background while I studied for uni, so I know it's not supposed to look like this.
So the same 'graphical error' can be observed in three completely different games to some degree, and now it just rubs me the wrong way.
I've also noticed in the Nvidia control panel, that my maximum refresh rate is only 60, despite my monitor being a 144Hz one, but I don't remember if it set on 144 there before, I rarely check it.
I have also updated my GPU driver to the lastest, tinkered around with a few settings, but it still looks the same.
The card is installed on the top slot of my mobo, which is a "PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot", with my previous motherboard my current cpu was used in PCIe 3.0 only.
I have tried making a video, where I show normal gameplay, in-game cutscenes, and a pre-rendered one.

I tried windowed, borderless, fullscreen, always in 1080p (native monitor size), AA on, Texture filtering x16, but even if I turn both off nothing changes. These settings should be controlled by the application according to the NCP. Manually changing them there does nothing that I can discern aswell. Also there is no blur setting in the game, and if any game has it I disable it by default.
And to some degree it is the same exact issue for all 3 games mentioned above. Strangely Tarkov did not have such issues that I can tell.
