First of here is my build sheet: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CfsWyf

second I'm using 2 of the same tvs. Yes I know I should use a monitor but these were free.
Vizio 32" 1080p led TV @60hz

I run a dual monitor set up. My main monitor is used by my pc and my second monitor is shared by my xbox one and PC.
The xbox one uses my TV at 1080p with no issues. Looks great.
My pc thats built for HD gaming only sets my TV up for 1360x768. It looks ok but not as crisp as I'd like it to be. I try to switch it to the 1920x1080 using "right click-display options" and as soon as i click apply the screen resolution is changed to a 1080i. It really hurts my eyes to look at it. I've talked on the phone with MSI support and they didnt help much.

ALL of my drivers are up to date as of yesterday 7-7-17.

I really want my tv to display the full 1080p but I've searched everywhere!

I am assuming the linked manual is for your actual TV model. If not, ignore what follows.

Without knowing the precise model of the TV, I can only suggest you check what picture modes are available on the TV itself (p.24). PCs typically require different settings. What some TVs call 120 Hz is more technical trickery than a real refresh rate (from what I gather), and doesn't suit PC usage. The other is to check your...

This should at least give you a starting point.
