<div>So I played around with a bunch of things, desperate to make my big monitor useful, and I seem to have it working properly now.

</div>
<div>I don't know exactly what fixed it with 100% confidence, but it looks like it works fine if I set the refresh rate to 30 Hz, but at anything higher (50/59.97/60 Hz) some text becomes unreadable.</div>

isn't affected...?</div>
