Installed new GTX 960, screen is now blocky / pixely

[Earl_Ethan]

I've recently been using my integrated AMD radeon and have installed a new GTX 960 to replace that. But ever since I've done so my screen looks blocky / pixely, I don't know exactly how to explain it. But for example the windows 10 logo on the taskbar looks like the resolution has been lowered or it's pixelated on the edges. Im connected to my monitor via HDMI - HDMI and the resolution is 1080p on the monitor and the control panel. Also I cannot use the auto adjustment option, I never have and I don't know why. Please help, I've just poured cash into this card and now i'm worrying that I've wasted it or I need a new monitor / cord.

NOTE: GPU has 2 DVI, 3 Displays, and 1 HDMI.

Monitor only takes 1 VGA and 1 HDMI

I have the same issue with my gtx 970 sli, absolutely no clue how to fix it.

Use DDU, to uninstall the driver. Then download the most recent driver from NVIDIA and see if that works.

I forgot to update saying that I fixed the problem.

The resolution was instead of connection via HDMI - HDMI I connected via DVI - VGA, (DVI from the GPU - VGA in the monitor)

HDMI seems to have a weird tendency for these cards, but HDMI right now is meant for a box to tv kind of deal, such as xbox to televison, not meant as a computer monitor too much it's not perfected to that stage. But if you were to use DVI - DVI or an adapter or cord to do VGA - DVI and vice versa you should be fine, I have not been able to test if DVI - HDMI works yet because I don't have a adapter / cord to do so.
