Perfect picture, non of your problems, i set my font sizes bigger and icon size/text etc. Check your refresh rate is not to high and recheck your spec regarding the resolution. Check you are using a suitable driver and not your old monitor driver. If non of these fix it i'd take it back and try another make/model.
