[@JSalva]

Thanks a lot man, you saved my day!!! This problem is so annoying that I was about to return the Samsung tv I just bought :) Searched everywhere, watched tons of videos, and didn't find the solution. And here it is, crystal clear. God bless you!!

[@ElvisChibundu]

Glad I helped

[@llittle725]

FINALLY... I have spent the last 2 weeks trying to fix this problem... Watched numerous videos to try to fix... I didn't have the remote for the TV (monitor) I was using... bought a universal remote from Amazon to try to change the TV display settings, and spent another 2 days trying to fix this problem, to no prevail... then stumbled across your video... and Wala... fixed it in 2 minutes... I usually don't watch or like videos without voice narration, but I stayed with you and finally fixed the problem by downloading the NVidia GeForce Experience software. It was the Software part of the video that I needed.... Thanks so much... lifesaver... :) ...and replying to each and every comment.... another awesome thing you do... LOL

My 4k 144hz tv says it's a 1080p native (recommend) monitor, any idea how to fix this?

[@ElvisChibundu]

Use a custom resolution
Change HDMI cable

[@S4_QUATTROPOWER]

@@ElvisChibundu Been there done that, Nothing fixes it. Went through 6 2.1 HDMI cords rated at full 48GBS, updated driver's, Bios, Firmware on TV, checked the Settings, even had tcl replace mobo and pdb, still same. Issue, RMAd 4 7900xtx this is my 5th one, still same issue. Nothing gets this tv to give its Native Aspect resolution of 3840x2160 Native (recommended) resolution. Even went as far testing on my other sony 4k tv still 1080p native. Would you be able to help me via remote desktop?

Please pin tis comment so people can see.
AMD settings Is called "HDMI scale" for 1920 x 1080 you want 4%

the resizing thing works but now most of my windows have very small and blurry texts and icons even though i used a 1080p TV, how can I fix this?

[@ElvisChibundu]

Is your TV 1080p native?
Check your NVIDIA control pannel

[@atomicqxr]

@@ElvisChibundu yep 1920x1080 native, but for some reason my windows 10 became all blurry with the text and icons even if i increased the scale to above 100% until i change it to 1360x768, where it would he clear but programs with small texts become unreadable (whilst if i set it to 1080p, the overall clearness is gone but small texts in programs are more readable)

[@ElvisChibundu]

@@atomicqxr Obviously your TV is 1366X768 Native

[@atomicqxr]

@@ElvisChibundu it's 1360x768, that's 16:9, not 1366. That'd be weird then, cuz nvidia control panel said 1080p was native and windows said 1080p was recommended. Sorry for bothering you then.
