Just got it today and have been installing all my stuff, however I noticed its not as crisp as I would expect and there are some apps where I can see the blur in it ... Here is an example of it, hopefully its blurry to yall as well :) haha

I have downloaded all the updated from MyAsus, I have also downloaded the most recent Nvidia driver, per Geforce Experience.

right now I am on 240Hz refresh, I tried switching to 60Hz refresh and still got the same blurry images and fuzzy text. Unless I did something wrong ...

What am I missing here?

yes tried that ... didnt help.

It is almost like when you have a fresh install of windows and the resolution and everything is just off a little because you dont have drivers installed yet. However, ASUS support just gave me 3 drivers to install and said if that didnt work, update BIOS to v210

UPDATE:

installed everything and updated BIOS ...

I think some of the issue was running on battery, the screen gets dark and looks not so good. Plugged it in and everything brightened up and text looks better. However that ASUS app is still ghosting/blurry.

Fusion 360 looks better too ...

It controls RGB and stuff on desktops, seems like it has more features for you on laptop.
Even if you dont use the software, it may have needed drivers for you.

looks like between non native resolution and something that skip in setting,
maybe you could try uninstall the driver and try fresh install the vga driver

that 125% scaling could be the issue, scaling can go weird at times

I agree with Mussels, that 125% scaling is most likely the culprit
