So I have a 32' Sony Bravia 1080p and I kind of played with the settings and it looks almost perfect. I'm running 1920x1080 60hz right now. Also I have a Tri-x R9 290 gpu. What should I do to make it perfect?

How close to the TV are you? At 1080p I doubt at that size text will ever look sharp, I have a 27" monitor running 1080p and text on that is not quite as sharp as I would like, if you look around that's a common complaint when running 1080p on 27" hence why people go for 1440p. At 32" you have stretched the image even further.

My guess is its as good as it can be. 1080p stretched to 32" when using it like a monitor just wont look sharp, its too low resolution.

Try to set a single scaling for all elements in windows
Desktop(right click)>Screen Resolution> Make text and other items larger or smaller(tick let me choose one scaling level for all my displays)>Small/Medium/Large, choose which one fits you most and check if the text is still blurry (you have to sign in/restart again every time you change size for windows to apply changes)

Go into your TV settings and make sure the "Aspect Ratio" is set to "Just scan". The names of the settings may be slightly different, but TV's behave different, and HDMI is defaulted to TV like settings. You may also need to go into the CCC and remove any scaling options.

It's usually a lot easier to just not use HDMI if you have another digital choice.
