Here’s a rewritten version of the text, aiming for clarity and conciseness while preserving the original’s tone and details:

I'm experiencing an issue with sharpness in many games on my system. Specifically, visuals appear overly sharp or over-contrasted, creating an uncomfortable viewing experience. This manifests as slight white borders around NPCs and objects, and distant areas appearing heavily pixelated even when using x8 MSAA. The effect diminishes when running the games in windowed or borderless mode, which is a workaround but not consistent across titles. This drastically reduces perceived depth and sometimes makes graphics appear 2D/cartoony. The problem did *not* occur when using my older Intel HD 4600 graphics card via VGA.

My system specs are: i5-4590, 8GB RAM, XFX Radeon RX 570 4GB. I’m running Windows 10 Pro (build 1909) with the latest AMD Radeon Software drivers (20.2.1). My monitor is a Dell 1908FP at 1280x1024 @ 75Hz connected via DVI. I’m incredibly frustrated as this dramatically impacts my gaming experience and I’m seeking help to resolve it.

This sounds like a frustrating situation! Let’s try to troubleshoot this further. To help me understand what’s going on and find a solution, could you please tell me:

* **What is the name of the game?**
* **What operating system are you using (Windows 10/11, macOS, etc.)?**
* **Can you describe the problem you're experiencing in more detail?** (e.g., "The game crashes when I try to load a specific level," or "The graphics are distorted.")
* **What have you tried so far to fix the problem?** (e.g., restarting your computer, updating drivers, reinstalling the game)

I have the same problem and also all the similar problems from your previous post. I am currently using a refurbished rx 560. I tried undervolting and it solved my problem only for a short period. After a week or so, the problem re appared.
I discussed with one of my friend who owns the same card and surprisingly he is not facing any such problem. He's been using the same card for the past 2 yrs without any issue. I guess it a hardware problem as my card is refurbished and so is yours.
