So a few weeks ago my computer started freezing up and the screen started getting distorted and pixelated. So I talked to the people at best buy and they said it sounded like my graphics card gave out. So I bought a new graphics card and a new power supply and installed them. The computer wont freeze up anymore but the icons are HUGE and pixelated. It looks like a late 90's computer desktop. So I uninstalled the graphics card and fired up the computer and it looks like normal. I don't understand? What is wrong with my computer?

Sounds like you didn't install the drivers so you were in low resolution.
