    Hey guys been a while since I've posted on this forum -

    I've hardly used my main laptop screen and I resort to coding on an external display while in school but lately I've had to code on my main screen. I've noticed that icons and fonts are a lot "sharper" than they used to be. It doesn't bother me too much but I was wondering what setting could change this. Been tinkering around to see what it could be - any thoughts?

    Thanks in Advance,
    DeeVu

    Try disabling DBC CE in your BIOS.

    Ah that would do it. Thanks. Just realized I enabled it earlier this week. Thanks. I know it has been asked but have we discovered what it does?

    Nope. All I can tell you is that it makes the display look absolutely gorgeous. Colors are brighter and richer.
