    Hi everyone,

    I'm really loving the 4k display on my XPS 15 (except for the blurry fonts sometimes, wtf Microsoft ?) but when gaming, the 1080p resolution looks super blurry. From my understanding, 4k to 1080p should be "perfect" scaling considering 4k is twice as many pixels both vertically and horizontally. I should get the same image quality as I would on a 1080p display, right ? Sadly right now it's not the case at all. Everything from the fonts to the 3D rendering itself is blurry ingame.

    Any idea what I could do to fix that issue ?

    EDIT : fixed by reinstalling the nvidia drivers. Weird, but it worked.
