Bad Graphics but Good Computer, Help!
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hey guys, I recently just built a computer and had to buy a monitor, mouse, and a keyboard (irrelevant) but the first graphics card I got ended up malfunctioning so nvidia decided to replace it for free and I got the same one and it is working fine. The only problem is that I feel like the graphics aren't as good as they should be... When I watch videos, any type of videos, youtube, movies, anything, the graphics are bad and the shading and texture looks pixely... I know its not the quality of the video because I can watch them in 1080p hd, and on my 5 year old laptop the graphics are better... So please, if you guys have any suggestions that I can do to fix the bad graphics then please let me know! this is frustrating cause I spent around 900$ on this computer and it isn't up to par... My specs are bellow. Thank you!
