I've tried 3 different DP cables, all with the same result. I set AppleFontSmoothing to 0 to turn off subpixel antialiasing. I guess that's the subpixel antialiasing not working so well with MiniDP. Can you see the hues around the edges of text? I think that's what's messing with my eyes.

Open the pictures in full size using two different tabs, and flick between them, you should be able to see the difference. It may not be easy to see the difference when paying attention to the pixels, but the subtle difference makes a huge difference in readability during normal use. Unfortunately it only runs at 30Hz on HDMI, so that's not a solution.
I've found out that when connected using HDMI instead of MiniDP, the rendering is improved. I'm using a Mini-DP to Mini-DP cable, running at full resolution, and 60Hz frequency.Ĭan anyone shed some light please? Can anything be done about it? More Info It simply appears more pixelated, everywhere. OS X does allow changing the level of font smoothing by overwriting the AppleFontSmoothing defaults, but no amount of fiddling with the values can resolve the issue, and besides, the issue isn't just about text anyway (e.g. However, as someone who doesn't understand much about the internals of displays, I'm struggling to understand why the quality and crispness of the image on my 40" Philips monitor cannot match that of the iMac's, despite the higher PPI.Īnd by quality of image, I'm not limiting this to text-rendering alone. I understand these two displays are built by different manufactures and use different technologies. Being a 39.56" UHD screen, it runs at a native resolution of 3840 x 2160, resulting in a PPI around 111.Ĭompare that to the standard 27" Apple Display/iMac, which at a native resolution of 2560 x 1440, has a PPI of 109.
The monitor in question is the Philips Brilliance 4K Display BDM4065UC/00. The new iMac comes with an upgraded resolution of 4.5K (4480 x 2520) at 218 pixels per.
I'm looking to understand exactly why a monitor with higher number of pixels per inch (albeit slightly so), than the standard 27" iMac, cannot produce image that is at least just as sharp as images on the iMac. Best choice memory for Apple iMac 27-Inch (Late 2013) Computer.
