2D quality on my 800 Pro seems inferior to my 9700 Pro. Anyone else notice blurrier text?
 
What type of monitor?
Someone else had the same problem with a 6800 gt on a Dell monitor.
It's in the Nvidia threads. Talk of PS not being strong enough?

Try going to desktop properties/Appearance/effects/ use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts(make sure it's checked):
Clear type
OK
Apply
Maybe?
 
I'm using an NEC LT260K projector on a 76 inch screen :)

I don't think the difference would be that great on a standard-sized monitor, but at 76 inches the slightest drop in quality is noticeable.

I'm using a 400w PSU from PC Power and Cooling.

Clear Type on?
 
Clear type is on. I remember noticing how much improved the 2D was on my 9700 Pro compared to my GF4 Ti4200. Now the quality seems to have reverted with the 800 Pro. May be the 9700 was just exceptional? Both are Sapphire. The 4200 was Visiontek.
 
Oh god I think cleartype is terrible and makes it looks alot worse it just makes the text bold

I hate it
