r9 280x vapor x resolution

[lancerdude]

hi guys,

i've been using an gtx 260 for over past 4 years and i recently upgraded with these rig:

Gigabyte GA-Z87M-D3H
Intel Core i5-4670K 3.40-3.80GHz (4Core) Haswell Processor lga1150
Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler
Ram Gskill RipjawsX 8GB Dual 1866 CL9
Sapphire R9-280X Vapor-X OC 3GB GDDR5 384bit
SanDisk Ultra Plus SSD 128GB
western digital caviar blue 500gb
Seasonic m12II 850
Bitfenix Merc Alpha

i just noticed that the desktop image quality for the r9280x is somewhat like in a safemode view (slightly) unlike with my previous gtx which has more hd quality. i tried to adjust its native reso (1920x1080)i also updated my vid card drivers but the almost safemode like view is still in there. can anyone had a suggstion for this prob?

btw im using an hd cable(included in vapor x)mi as my vid output... thanks in advance

Did you remove the old NVidia drivers?

In the catalyst control center are you able to set the resolution and the colour depth?
